Kasuri Meethi And Potato Sabji (Dry Fenugreek Leafs And Potato Stirfry)

Fenugreek seeds and leaves are used often in cooking. Fenugreek leaves are very much aromatic and slightly bitter. Fenugreek leaves are used in dried form also. This kasuri meethi and potato sabji is very commonly cooked in north Indian houses. Even i tried this sabji first time and it was very tasty with roti. Now i add kasuri meethi to all most all the dishes because it gives a very good taste and it is very good for health too...

Gatte ki sabji is a popular and all-time favorite marwari recipe with besan based steamed dumplings simmered in buttermilk laden tangy gravy. I had never heard of this sabji nor tasted, few days back i was watching a TV show called Chak Le India on NDTV Goodtimes. There he was showing all marwari dishes in that i liked only gatte ki sabji, because it was sounding very different and very tasty too. On the same day i tried making this gatte ki sabji and it was very tasty with rice and i love it...

Hope every one like my recipe...

1 banana, cut in half
1tsp nescafe
1tsp choco chip
1/4 cup sugar
4 ice cubes
