    About this recipe

    Methi thelpa is a flavored flatbread made with whole wheat flour, fenugreek leaves, and spices. This unleavened bread can also be made using millet flour like bajra (pearl millet).

    This popular Gujarati dish is typically eaten for breakfast and is also served for lunch. It is often carried in large quantities during traveling. It is very similar to methi paratha, although there are subtle differences in terms of the spices used.

    Traditionally, fresh fenugreek leaves are used to make thepla. This recipe I am sharing here is the easy version of thepla made in Rotimatic. I am using Kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves) here along with spices and atta (chapati flour/Indian whole wheat flour).

    I have earlier how to make masala roti in before. Here is my version of methi thepla made using kasuri methi. Read on for ingredients, step-by-step instructions, and useful tips to make thepla using Kasoori methi in Rotimatic.

    Ingredients

    methi thepla ingredients with labels.

    Step-by-step instructions

    Lightly crush the kasuri methi between your palms. Combine together flour, kasuri methi, salt, and powdered spices. Mix them well (steps 1,2).

    Transfer the flour mixture to the Rotimatic container and place the container as per Rotimatic instructions. Fill water and oil in the containers and place them in Rotimatic (steps 3,4).

    mix flour with spices and transfer to rotimatic container.

    Select the flour and preferred settings for thickness, roast level, and oil. I am using Aashirvaad atta, thickness - 2, roast level - 2, and oil - 2 (step 5).

    Press the start button. Rotimatic starts making the theplas (steps 6,7,8).

    select preference on rotimatic.

    Useful tips

    Make sure to crush the Kasoori methi between your palms before using it. Also, remove any big dried pieces of stem that may be present.

    Rotimatic comes with a list of specific flours to be used. I have used Aashirwaad atta; however, you may use your preferred brand from their list.

    Make sure the mixing bowl and spatula/spoons used are clean and dry. There should not be any water or moisture in the flour container of Rotimatic.

    Serve it with this aloo gobi and dal fry for a wholesome meal.
