About Matar methi malai

Matar Methi Malai is a rich and flavorful dish originating from North Indian cuisine, combining green peas (matar), fenugreek leaves (methi), and cream (malai) in a fragrant, spiced gravy. Packed with nutrients, green peas provide a good source of plant-based protein, fiber, and essential vitamins like A, C, and K. Fenugreek leaves are rich in antioxidants, iron, and calcium, promoting digestive health and boosting immunity. The creamy base, typically made from fresh cream or cashew paste, lends a luxurious texture, though it can add higher calorie and fat content to the dish. Spices such as cumin, coriander, and turmeric enhance the flavor while offering anti-inflammatory benefits. Matar Methi Malai is a delightful blend of earthly and sweet tones suitable for vegetarians, but mindful portion sizes are recommended for those watching fat intake. Enjoy it with rotis or rice for a wholesome and satisfying meal.
