We can prepare many different dishes using methi / fresh fenugreek leaves. Usually we use methi leaves to prepare methi pakoda but methi and kela pakoda are different and absolutely delicious. Addition of bananas give a nice taste and flavour. The bitterness of methi and sweetness of banana makes this bhajiya really delicious. This bhajiya tastes equally delicious even when it gets cold!

Steps

4hr + 30m

1

Wash methi leaves and chop it finely. Mash bananas with the help of a fork. Overripe bananas are best for this recipe.
2

Now add all the ingredients except baking soda in a bowl and mix everything well. Now add methi and banana to it and give it a good mix. Add only 1 - 2 tbsp of water as required. If the fenugreek leaves are washed at that time only then you will not need to add any water. Now keep this batter for 4 hours to rest. You can even keep it for 30 minutes and but if you give more resting time, then the result is worth the wait.
3

Now add baking soda to the batter and give it a good mix. Heat oil in a pan and small portions to make bhajiya. Fry it at medium heat until golden brown in colour. Prepare all the bhajiya in the same way.
4

Serve hot bhajiya along with fried green chillies and onion. This can be even prepared as a side dish along with your main meal.
