 leaves, bajra flour, and regular spices.){kind=link}
Methi bajra thalipeeth is a healthy and tasty breakfast recipe made with fresh fenugreek (methi) leaves, bajra flour, and regular spices. thalipeeth is very popular in marathi cuisine which is made bhajani (thalipeeth flour), but in this recipe instead of it, I used bajri flour with little wheat flour and gram flour. it is crispy from the upperside soft from the inside and generally savory in taste. it is served with plain yogurt/curd with either fresh butter or pickle as a side dish. Do try this!
The key to making tasty methi-bajri thalipeeth at home are
- Firstly, use fresh methi leaves for thalipeeth. Also, I soaked methi leaves in salt water to decrease their bitterness.
- I use bajra flour (millet flour) with a combination of wheat flour and gram flour. You can use bhajani (thalipeeth flour) instead of it.
- Thalipeeth dough should be soft and non-sticky.
- Make holes in the center of the thalipeeth, helps to cook it evenly.
- Lastly, cook thalipeeth on medium flame till they become crispy and golden brown on both sides.
