Palak or spinach can be used instead of methi leaves. Feel free to use any other leafy greens and recreate this recipe. Remember to garnish the curry with dried fenugreek leaves at the end. However, the taste of fenugreek leaves gives this curry its own unique flavor. Dried Kasoori methi leaves can be used if fresh methi is not available. Dried Kasuri methi is much more potent than fresh leaves. so use just 1/4 cup. Soak the dried fenugreek leaves in water for 10 minutes and then add them to the curry at the end.
