This Menthya Chutney is commonly prepared at my mom’s house. My mom usually makes this menthe chutney with godhi kadubu (steamed wheat flour dumplings) or bili rotti. But we also eat with dosa and idli. Usually, the utter name of fenugreek seeds makes people frown due to its bitter taste, but I bet you are just going to love this. This Methi chutney recipe is not only nutritious but very tasty too. It is good for lactation, strengthens bones, and good for backache, especially after delivery. Both fenugreek seeds and fenugreek leaves improve milk supply in lactating mothers. My mom served me this menthya chutney with steamed rice and pepper rasam for my postpartum diet. Other Methi Recipes to try from my blog are methi leaves pulao, methi paratha, aloo methi sabzi.
