#Diabetes
In India diabetes patients are increasing in an alarming rate. 1 in every four people are diabetic. So i think we have to bring a lots of change in our food habit and life style. Today I have made methi machli, fishes in a thick spicy gravy of fenugreek leaves or methi saag. As we all know that methi is very helpful to control diabetes so diabetic patients should eat methi very frequently. And fish contains omega 3 fatty acid which is also very good for health. So this dish is totally guiltfree and healthy dish.
