Gajar Methi Ki Sabzi (Carrot And Fenugreek) is a very nutrition rich side dish packed with the goodness of carrot and fenugreek. The bitterness of the fenugreek is well complimented with the sweetness of carrots.
I like to make this dish with red carrot as they are more sweet and juicy. The amchur gives a nice tangy flavor to the dish. This simple and quick recipe is a must try. It has no onion and garlic which puts it in the catagory of Satvick Bhojan.
During winter season when fresh green peas (matar) are available in plenty, one can also add them as an optional ingredients to this dish. Try this recipe with our Sabut Masoor Ki Daal and Khasta Roti for a complete meal.
