Other Names: Methi Paratha Ingredients: 2 cup Fenugreek Leaves (aka Methi Leaves) 1 cup Wheat Flour (aka Atta) Oil (for cooking thepla) 1 tbsp Ginger Garlic Paste ½ cup Curd (aka Dahi, Yogurt) ½ cup Besan (aka Chickpeas Flour) ½ tsp Turmeric Powder 1 tsp Red Chilli Powder (aka Paprika) 1 tbsp Coriander Powder Salt (according to taste) Instructions: 1. First separate out fenugreek leaves from hard stems. Once done wash methi leaves thoroughly in water, for this first soak methi leaves in water for 15-20 mins so that all dirt loosen up. After 15 mins wash them 4-5 times so that all dirt is cleaned, which is very important as else methi thepla can be gritty. 2. Once all fenugreek leaves are washed, lets chop them. For this take a fistful of fenugreek leaves and chop them finely as shown in video. Similarly, chop all leaves or if you have a chopper you can also use that. 3. Now lets start preparing dough for thepla, for this first take an empty bowl. Now add 1 cup wheat flour, ½ cup Besan, chopped fenugreek leaves, salt according to taste, 1 tsp red chilli powder, ½ tsp turmeric powder, 1 tbsp coriander powder, 1 tbsp ginger garlic paste, ¼ cup curd and 1 tbsp oil. 4. Now mix all ingredients well. Once all ingredients are mixed lets start kneading the dough. For this take ½ cup lukewarm water and start adding little by little while continuously kneading the dough. Due to besan this dough can be little sticky so don’t worry. In total I have used ½ cup of water. When done cover it and leave it for 10-15 mins to make it even smoother. 5. After 15 mins open the bowl and again knead the dough a little to make it even smoother. Now lets start preparing thepla, for this first make medium size dough balls like this, cover it in dry flour and then roll into 5-6 inch disc. Just remember thepla should be of medium thickness, neither too thin nor too thick. 6. Now lets start cooking methi thepla, so heat a tawa on medium high heat, when its hot enough put thepla on tawa and let it cook for 20-30 sec. After that flip it and apply oil on top. Then again flip it after 20 sec and apply oil on the second side. Now cook it while gently pressing till we get nice light brown spots on both sides. Now our thepla looks ready so take it out in a plate. 7. Similarly make all methi theplas and serve them hot. Tips n Tricks: 1. If you want to make it vegan use water instead of curd while preparing the dough
