Goan Methi Paez is a fenugreek gruel which Goans/Mangaloreans in India consider very good for mothers postpartum. Studies associate it to help increase breast milk production and also regain their strength and aid repair any injury suffered during child birth. Fenugreek seeds have many other benefits and this type of kheer can be enjoyed by one an all and not restricted to only the newly mothered. My hubby enjoys it too without any fuss and he’s not lactating yet! 😆
