Methi Paratha or the Fenugreek Flatbread is not from the group of stuffed parathas. The methi leaves (fenugreek leaves) are chopped and kneaded in the dough.
It is very simple and easy to make yet delicious. It goes well with plain curd or even tea. But yes, do not forget to top it up with the home made white butter. Any paratha remains incomplete without the home made white butter.
I also added in some chopped onions to give it an extra flavor and taste. These Methi Parathas (fenugreek flatbread) can also be packed for the tiffins as they stay soft for long.

1 cup Fenugreek Leaves (methi leaves) chopped

Mix it well.
Then knead it into a dough by adding water in parts.
Let it rest for 15 minutes.
Place a tawa / pan on the gas or induction whatever you would be using, so that by the time we roll the paratha, the tawa / pan would be hot.
Take a small portion of the dough.
Apply some flour and flatten it. Then roll it into a circle and apply ghee.
Fold the opposite sides to overlap.
Then fold the remaining other two sides to form a square.
Dust some flour and roll it maintaining the square shape.

Serve it with plain curd. It also goes well with just a cup of tea.
Tips:
Cook on medium to low heat it would cook the paratha evenly on both the sides and also would make it crisp.
