Please excuset he bad pic and just go for the recipe. This is sindhi style spinach and fenugreek rice (methi rice) which goes together in Sindhi food. I have been asked for this recipe and did not have it! Shame on me being sindhi and this being such a staple food in our homes.. Well here it is…its a copy and paste recipe from a long time ago .. but nevertheless a good genuine recipe..Thanks to my sister Renu..
