Nutritious Dabba: Methi Dal Recipe

Are you game for twisting up your regular “dal” time? Possible brings to you a simple recipe of methi dal. Methi leaves or fenugreek leaves are a good source of protein. It is rich in calcium, phosphorus, and a good source of Iron and vitamin C. Steaming is considered the best way of cooking this herb, as all the vitamins are retained. The protein content in dried fenugreek leaves or Kasuri methi is almost equal to that in pulses. We complement this green leafy veggie roti further by making it in protein-rich toor dal. Imagine deriving the benefit of both dal and green leafy veggies in a bowl of dal! Serve it hot with chapatis or fluffy cooked brown rice.
