#healthylunch - Fenugreek seeds helps in lowering blood sugar levels, controls cholesterol and is diabetic friendly, besides various other benefits. Methi paneer is a very popular dish usually served in restaurants and also made in many bones. But I would like to share a quick and a healthy curry for lunch, using paneer and fenugreek seeds. It is definitely a must try recipe if you are in favour of a simple homemade side dish. They can be served with rice or chapati.
