A popular Winter dish that is loved by all with a slight twist. I had some Birista with me from the previous day's Curry which I used in this simple one pot dish for today's Breakfast. Therefore the cooking time also got reduced considerably.
The rest of the recipe remains the same with no changes at all.
Nothing can get any simpler than this. The combination of the two ingredients used in this dish is so very amazing and it just blends around so perfectly that one cannot stop drooling over this Vegetarian classic. It is the most wanted dish at my house and our family's favourite. And I hope yours too. It's an absolutely amazing one pot dish that is loved by the children and the adults alike.
And how can it be not relished in Winters when it's the most popular Season for it's spectacular array of fresh and healthy Vegetables and Fruits in the Country. Therefore It's a must have one and so even I made it for Breakfast and also for the Lunchbox too. The bursting flavours of freshly done Fenugreek Greens and it's aroma is just so mesmerising. The colour is so inviting. You will definitely love it with homemade Chapatis or Rotis and even Phulkas.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps

20-25 minutes

1

Wash and chop the fenugreek leaves. Wash and peel the potatoes and cut as desired. I cubed them into very small size or mini to be precise. This is actually done to facilitate some quick cooking as well as to give a great look to the dish in particular.

In a pan, heat oil and add cumin seeds along ginger garlic green chilli paste. Saute it for a few seconds and then add some of the fenugreek greens. Saute them for a few seconds and then add the birista and the potatoes along with the spices as mentioned. Cover and cook until tender. Alternatively you can deep fry the potato cubes for 3 to 4 minutes and then add. It will give a nice flavour to the dish. Anyways that's purely optional.

When the potatoes are almost done. Now is the time to add more of the chopped greens and cook on a high flame for about 2-3 minutes. Adjust salt and add chopped coriander leaves too. Cover and cook on a medium flame for just a minute more. And it's done.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
