Hi Kanan,
Nice venture .All of the recipes look tasty and simple to organize.
I hv an issue concerning the bitterness of methi. Where ee r residing presently, we dont get methi frequently. So whenever I visit India, i purchase methi and dry its leaves internally after which arrive here beside me. The issue is, in addition to this drying process, the bitterness multiplies too. Its so bitter that u cant hold it in ur mouth whatsoever. I attempted salting it n squeezing out water but doesnt help. I'm able to make only theplas wid this methi.
Do u have means to fix this?

To eliminate bitterness of Methi: Wash fresh methi leaves, sprinkle some salt onto it and then leave it aside for ten minutes. Then squeeze out all of the water. By doing this salt will lessen the bitterness. Just like you pointed out. However this procedure is perfect for Fresh methi leaves. Don't know how you can remove from dry methi. I'd say make use of this technique of fresh methi leaves then dry them to make kasoori methi.

The dal looks tasty. Atleast by doing this I'm able to feed methi to my baby daughter. Great receipe and simple too.
