Give your curries a pinch of this wonderful tiny spice for a delicious aroma and well-balanced flavour. Use only a small amount of fenugreek because it has a strong flavour that could make the food taste bitter.
No Indian cuisine, from curries to chutneys, would be complete without a mustard tempering. To extract the whole flavour, crackle it in hot oil. You may also dry roast and powder it to make a crunchy snack mix.
The sweetness of fennel makes it an essential ingredient in Indian desserts. It is also believed to help with digestion and is chewed after meals to help with breath freshening.
