Aloo Methi / Fenugreek Leaves and Potato
Simplest and most aromatic vegetable. Fenugreek leaves have a lot of health benefits as well. It is not easily available at the American grocery stores but the Indian stores carry them all the time. The stores also carry dried fenugreek leaves, which are much stronger in flavor, you can use that also in this recipe but if you use the dried ones use just about 1 tablespoon.
