Thaleepith

Ingredients:

  1. Thaleepith bhajani
  2. 2 medium chopped onions
  3. Green chillies chopped as required
  4. Salt to taste
  5. Chopped coriander
  6. Oil for roasting
  7. Water as required
  8. 1 tsp oil

Process:

  1. In a bowl mix thaleepith bhajani, chopped onions, green chillies, salt and coriander.
  2. Add 1 tsp oil and mix well.
  3. Start adding water in parts to make soft, smooth and moist dough.
  4. On a little wet plastic sheet, take a portion from the dough and with greased hands pat the dough gently to form a circle. (medium thickness)
  5. Make 4-5 holes in the centre, which will help the thaleepith in frying well.
  6. Spread a little bit of oil on a hot tawa with the help of a brush.
  7. Lift the plastic sheet and carefully place the thaleepith on the tawa and peel off the plastic sheet leaving the thaleepith on the tawa. (ATTENTION- Make sure the plastic sheet does NOT touch the hot tawa).
  8. Sprinkle some oil everywhere evenly and cover with a lid and let it cook till the base turns nice, crispy and golden brown in colour. Cook on low-medium flame. Never cook thaleepith on a high flame.
  9. Flip the thaleepith and do the same for the other side.
  10.  Remove the thaleepith from the tawa and serve hot with curd or Indian white butter. It even goes well with chilli pickle.
