  1. Come winters, come fresh methi greens. And when turned into parathas, these are so delicious. Love this recipe.5 stars

  2. Super easy to make and so tasty! I was told to add some jaggery to the dough in order to reduce the bitterness of the fresh methi leaves (which I, for one, have never had any trouble with) and some ajwain seeds, too.

    They turned out great like that, but since I used your recipe as a base, I am very grateful and give you full credit for the result, since I definitely need some tried and tested measurements and detailed step-to-step instructions when making bread (something I have yet to master).

    Greetings from a big fan of your recipes living in Spain.5 stars

    1. Thanks a lot. If the fenugreek leaves are not bitter, jaggery need not be added. Ajwain seeds can be added though. Glad that you like the recipe. Making bread or for that matter flat breads is not that difficult. With more practice it becomes simple and easy. Thanks again.

      1. I agree 100%: jaggery is definitely not needed here. I probably added too little for it to have any meaningful impact on the final result, anyway, so I suspect it would’ve been just delicious without it.

        I do think the ajwain gave a special touch, though. Will definitely be doing another batch this week. Thanks again.

  3. Made these today for the first time, so good ! ? I will be making many times. I put the add-in spices you recommended in small amounts, and next time I will add more methi leaves to the dough too.

    I’m just a home cook, I don’t have a blog or website or social media for cooking, however I can see how much work it is to write out these recipes in detail and upload all the photos and tips things. We home cooks appreciate so much ! Thx ! ?5 stars

    1. Thank you. Oh yes, it does take plenty of time and effort to write and maintain the blog. Thanks for the understanding. Also thanks for the feedback on the recipe. You can always adjust the spices and herbs according to your taste preferences.

  4. Dear Dassana, Excellent recipes and explanations. Any beginner can make your recipes. I feel each and everyone should learn how to cook their ethnic food at home. You give the best to your family.

  5. Hello Mam.
    I have loved your site so far! I have been able to try only a few of your recipes yet.
    I am a complete newbie to cooking. I wanted to ask what exactly does 1 cup measure to ? Is this the same as ‘1 cup’ of baking measurement cups (= 8 oz) ?
    Is there any utensil I can substitute from the ones more commonly seen in an Indian household ?
    Please help mam.
    Thank you.

    1. Hi Sristy, thank you. I will reply you in detail by tonite on the email. Yes in my recipes, the 1 cup measure is the standard American measuring cup which is 8 oz. In baking recipes, you cannot use any utensil, but in some Indian recipes, you can use a small bowl or a small glass.

    1. the recipe method will be the same, but only the quantity of dried methi leaves will be less. you can use about 2 to 3 tablespoons dried methi leaves (kasuri methi). the rest of the ingredients will be the same.

  6. These parathas with just methi,chilli and garlic in the dough tasted so good.makes for a healthy and nutritious breakfast.all of us loved it.4 stars

  7. Great recipe and we prepare this almost every week.

    Thank you for sharing your recipes and making our lives easy and healthy.

    Loads of love and Best wishes
