F for Fenugreek/Menthikoora pulusu
Posted by Ratnavalli on September 28, 2006
The only one that came to my mind is Fenugreek . But I am trying to think of some telugu name that starts with F..
This is what happens when you choose english alphabets to write telugu/Andhra recipes.
I will keep my thinking caps on until I talk to amma or MIL and remember something about F .. until then shall continue with rest of the letters and see what I can write.

Well no other vegetable came in to my mind. But this is one simple recipe I love .
Plain yogurt ( curd) —- 3 cups
Chopped Fenugreek (methi) leaves 2 cups
Green chillies 3 finely chopped
for popu , 1tsp each of cumin,jeera , mustard and a pinch of hing
Salt as per taste
oil 1 tsp
turmeric a pinch
Beat the curd with some water ( approx 2 cups)
sprinkle some water on the fenugreek leaves ,add some salt and cook it . ( I usually do in a presure cooker for 10 mins).let it cool.
add cooked methi leaves ,green chilles to the beaten curd and mix
Do the popu and add to the curd,methi mix .
( instead of adding raw green chilles to the curd, you can fry with popu and then add , your choice) .
I like to eat this with roti’s or mudda pappu annam .
