TIP: Substitute for fresh methi

When fresh methi (fenugreek leaves) is not available you can still make aloo methi by adding spinach instead of methi in the dish and then adding a little kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves) at the end.This way the spinach gives the green colour and the kasoori methi adds flavour so that it tastes almost like aloo methi made out of fresh methi. But please note that you should not put too much of kasoori methi as it will make the dish bitter. Put about 2 tbsps in aloo methi for 4 people.
