Methi Paratha Recipe | Winter Special Soft & Flavorful Fenugreek Paratha

Methi Paratha – A Warm Winter Comfort from Our Kitchen

Methi Paratha is one of those winter foods that feels like home.
As soon as fresh fenugreek leaves appear in the market, we know exactly what’s going to be made in our kitchen.

Methi is mainly grown in winter, and this is when it tastes the best — tender, aromatic, and slightly bitter in the most comforting way. These parathas are not just delicious but also very nutritious, and they help keep the body warm during cold days.

This is a simple, everyday home-style methi paratha, the kind that’s made without fuss and enjoyed with chutney, pickle, or a bowl of curd.
