Kasuri Methi Parathas Fenugreek Flatbread My Food Story

on Oct 28, 2015, Updated Apr 16, 2021 Sometimes we are so taken by everything happening around us that we forget how wonderful the basics are. Like these Kasuri Methi Parathas, which are extremely simple and make for the most wonderful breakfast. These parathas have a very unique flavor and are extremely easy to make. Usually, I would make these using fresh methi or fenugreek leaves, but since I didn’t have any at hand, I decided to make them with kasuri methi. Even though I made these using kasuri methi for the first time, I was pleasantly surprised at how minimal the taste difference was!

Top Tips To Make The Best Kasuri Methi Parathas

The fresher your pack of kasuri methi the better as older kasuri methi tends to lose that fresh aroma. When making the dough, add water slowly and as required. The resulting dough should be firmer than roti but still easily pliable for the most perfect kasuri methi parathas. I would recommend resting the dough covered for about 10-15 minutes to help the parathas become really soft. Make these parathas even more wholesome by adding some finely chopped onions or grated carrots. Veggies add so much texture and flavor to these parathas, while also taking the health quotient a notch higher!

I love how comforting and homely these methi parathas taste and they make for an excellent breakfast to start my day with. However, I have eaten these at all times of the day, for different meals and it has tasted absolutely delicious each time! The other day I made these parathas with dal makhani and I couldn’t believe how much I loved the combination! Try it, I promise you will love it too!
