Hi I am after fenugreek leaves or Kasuri Methi (to be exact)  Wouldn't mind having a bash at growing it as well so if anyone knows where I might find the plant.  Thanks Karen

Hi.

At Los Llanos market, Saturday, there's an Asian family that sell Methi, both fresh and dried alongside other veg and coriander etc. They are based at the top of the stairwell leading to the Flea market part of the site.

Nice people, reasonable prices.

Woulkd be interested if anyone know where to buyviable Fenugreek seeds for planting, though.

I have fenugreek seeds and leaves.  You could try planting some seeds and letting us know how you get on.  Claire

Trucker - thank you so much for mentioning that shop. Went there today and spent a LOT of money topping up my spice cupboard. Normally I drive to Torrevieja a couple of times a year to the Sikh cash and carry next to the Gudwara but won't need to now! Have a Gujarati style curry on simmer as I write - the house smells brilliant...
