Peanut Methi Saag

First time I had Peanut Methi Saag was when I was trying to look out for good food for lactation. Some one told me then than methi saag can be a good addition to my diet. So I asked my cook to make some and she got me addicted to Peanut Methi Saag. Now I wanted it every day and then even before I could realise my husband too started asking for it. That's how our family got into eating Peanut Methi Saag. So the trick was my cooks and she added peanuts to give the otherwise not so interesting saag a very favorable crunch  and which till date makes Peanut Methi Saag one of our favorites.

Methi at our place is either used for parathas or Peanut Methi Saag, however I find latter more healthier. So the trick with Peanut Methi Saag is to use roasted peanut which are coarsely grounded and then cooked in masala. Technically Peanut Methi Saag doesn't have much masala and the natural taste of methi along with peanuts is what makes it awesome.
