Methi Muthia in Green Gravy

Coriander, Green-peas and coconut milk lends a great flavour to the gravy. Coriander has the most dominating taste, while the green peas and onions give a nice crunch. The methi muthias so crunch and yummy. You can have it just like that. But this combo of the gravy and methi muthias is wonderful.
