About this item

Whole methi seeds. Nitra Fenugreek Seeds, known as methi dana, are small golden seeds with a gently bitter, nutty flavour.

Why cooks choose it

A few seeds fried in oil turn reddish-brown and give tadka a deep, savoury note. Methi is a backbone of sambar and South Indian pickles, and a spoonful soaked with urad dal helps dosa batter ferment and brown.

What to cook with it

  • Fenugreek-tempered yellow dal
  • Punjabi-style pickle masala
  • Sambar
  • Idli and dosa batter

How to use

For tadka, fry 1/4 teaspoon in hot oil just until it darkens; overcooking makes it bitter. For batter, soak 1 teaspoon with the urad dal before grinding.

Pack sizes

Available in 100 g and 400 g packs.

Storage
