Aloo methi curry or Fenugreek microgreens and potato curry is a simple Indian curry with potatoes and fresh fenugreek microgreens. This is a super easy and super simple curry that can be made in under 20 minutes.
This curry is a quick flavorful dish and is an easy side for rotis, chapathis, phulkas.
I don’t see fresh methi leaves (fenugreek) very often here in the market in Canada. So I grow them in my balcony in a small pot/container. Growing methi is super easy. Check how to grow fenugreek in containers at home here.

Now getting back to the curry,
Potatoes go well with everything when it comes to Indian recipes and methi is no exception. It’s such a simple curry where most of the flavor is from the fresh fenugreek leaves.
I have hardly added any spices to this curry.
