Wow thanks DalPuri - thats excellent. The reason I thought it was fenugreek was because I remember there was an ecoli outbreak in germany i think 2 or 3 years ago and i seem to remember someone tracing it back to fenugreek beensprouts. just shows "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing" lol

That rings a bell. I was in France at the time playing a festival and nobody touched the salad backstage

I had a go at growing Methi a few weeks back to see if a packet of seed I bought in Delhi would grow in the UK climate.
