April 12, 2010 by Sandhya Hariharan
Simplicity is Divine! goes quite apt with this dry Curry. Very simple ingredients but very strong in flavours.This green leafy vegetable(Methi) though bitter... it compliments quite well with Potatoes.... Both H n me are potato n Methi lovers. One of our favourite recipes.. straight for my records.Enzoy....

KITCHEN NOTES:
I like it a bit tangy and hence you would find most dishes with a twist of tomato puree...Its optional ...
