Instructions:

For the dough

  • In a wide bowl, add atta, besan, methi, garlic, turmeric, salt, coriander powder, cumin powder, dried red chillies, 1 tbsp oil and curd. Knead into a soft dough. Allow dough to rest for 15 minutes.

To make thepla

  • Divide the dough into 10 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball. Cover the dough balls with a damp cloth to prevent drying.
  • Heat a griddle and lightly brush its surface with groundnut oil. Roll out a dough ball evenly into a thin thepla, ~9 in in diameter. Place thepla on hot griddle and roast on medium-high heat on each side for 20-25 seconds. Apply 1/2 tsp oil on the partly cooked side, flip and cook pressing with a patatha presser, until lightly golden. Repeat oil application and cooking on the other side.

To serve

  • Serve cool, with chai and a pickle of your choice (optional).
