Aloo Methi / Potato Fenugreek Masala

This is an easy recipe which can be used as a starter as well as a side dish for any type of food.
To use as starters cut them into finger sized pieces which can be taken just like that with fingers / tooth picks / forks.

Ingredients needed for Aloo Methi
250 grams of small / baby potatoes
1 tsp garlic chopped fine
1/2 tsp red chilli powder
1/2 tsp salt ( as per taste)
1 tsp Kasoori Methi (dried fenugreek leaves)
1 tbsp refined oil

How to prepare Aloo Methi ?
Boil, peel and prick the small potatoes with a fork. Be careful to see that they do not break or lose the shape. Apply salt, chilli powder to the potatoes and keep aside.
Heat oil in a non stick fry pan, add chopped garlic and fry till golden.
Add the small potatoes and chilli mix well
Stir fry till the poatoes get golden coloured. Add Kasoori methi and mix well. Cover for a minute or till the flavours combine well.
Serve hot in a serving dish, garnished with chopped coriander leaves.

Notes
You can use fresh fenugreek leaves if you can get them. You will have to add the fresh leaves with the potato mix itself and then fry till the leaves also get fried, along with the potatoes.
Serve either toothpicks or small fruit forks for the guests to be able to eat with out touching the food.
