Directions: Masala Methi Thepla Recipe: Easy Gujarati Flatbread For Breakfast

  • STEP 1.Wash the methi leaves thoroughly, drain well and then chop them finely. Take a large mixing bowl and add whole wheat flour, salt and all the dry spices to it.
  • STEP 2.To this, now add yoghurt, chopped green chillies, grated ginger, sesame seeds, cumin seeds, ajwain and 1 tbsp oil. Mix everything nicely so that the methi and spices are evenly distributed.
  • STEP 3.Slowly add water and knead to make a soft, pliable dough. Cover and let it rest for about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • STEP 4.Hereafter, divide the dough into equal portions and then roll each of them into a smooth ball. Dust a bit with flour and roll to make medium-thick flatbread, keeping the thepla a bit thicker than a regular roti.
  • STEP 5.Heat the tawa over a medium flame and then place the rolled thepla on it. Cook until small bubbles appear, then flip and cook from the other side.
  • STEP 6.Brush with a little oil or ghee and then cook from both sides until golden spots appear and the edges get cooked through perfectly. Press gently with a spatula so the thepla gets evenly cooked.
  • STEP 7.Remove from the tawa and serve hot with yoghurt, pickle, chutney or a cup of hot masala chai. For travel, let the theplas cool thoroughly and then pack them.
