Methi roti

Methi leaves (fenugreek leaves) are very good for health as they are rich in antioxidant, iron and also a good source of dietary fiber. It is a very good lunch box dish for kids. Kids are very fussy to eat methi since has little bitter taste. But if you are making parathas or roti with methi  the bitterness will not be there. It is very easy to make this roti. I used whole wheat flour, some spices and methi leaves to make this roti or paratha. Let us see how to make this roti.
