Hello hive family,
I hope you are doing great. Last Sunday was a very special day for me as I hosted a dinner for my friends. I prepared a variety of dishes for the occasion, but the one that everyone loved the most was Keema Methi. The unique combination of the flavorful keema and the slight bitterness of methi leaves made it the star of the evening. Today, for Creative Sunday, Iβm sharing the recipe for this dish that won everyoneβs hearts.
