Methi (Fenugreek) leaves when available in the winter, first we think of making Parathas. The magical smell and flavour of Fenugreek takes the taste of parathas to a different level. I experienced another thing , that I would like to share. If methi leaves were chopped very fine, the taste and flavour of Methi Parathas increased much more. So I decided to chop the methi leaves with a chopper.
