This is a special post for my dear friend and food blogger Sonal Gupta’s SUPER BOWL Collective post which will be live very soon.To visit Sonal’s blog please click here SimplyVegetarian777.I am bringing Methi Jeera Puffs or Cumin fenugreek Puffs.

These Puffs are so easy to make that even a person who is a novice in cooking can make it without any hesitation.
We have been eating methi puffs since our childhood and oftern we eat them as a tea time snack. In india we call it Methi Khari.When Sonal asked all the food bloggers to make something which is less than 5 ingredients, I was thinking about what to make.

Then one day My husband went to the Indian grocery store and brought Methi khari to have them with. When I opened the packet, it clicked in my mind that yes this is it! This can be a perfect recipe for this collective. I added little flavor by adding cumin and chat masala along with the methi or fenugreek leaves.
They came out perfect and so delicious that my kids and husband loved them. now no more buying them from store. We can make enjoy them any time and that too fresh, crisp and puffed.

 

Methi jeera puffs are so easy to make. All you need is cumin seeds, chat masala some dried fenugreek leaves that are easily availabe in all Indian grocery stores and they are called KASOORI METHI.You can also use curry powder if you want to replace the chat masala.Let us proceed towards the recipe
