THALLIPEETH
A typical maharashtrian dish made with multi grain flours, usually served as breakfast or snack with butter, yogurt or some dry garlic chutney.
Ingredients
1 cup besan
1 cup jowar flour
1 cup rice flour
½ cup bajra flour
½ cup wheat flour
1 tbsp. each, chilli, coriander, cumin & garam masala powder
1 tsp. turmeric
2 tbsp. grated Jaggery
½ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped coriander leaves
2 tbsp. garlic, finely chopped
Salt to taste
Ghee for applying
Besan, Jowar, Rice, Bajra, Wheat flours
Sieve flours and mix all above ingredients and knead with enough water into a soft dough. Cover and let the dough rest for 10 minutes. Knead lightly again and form the dough into small balls.
Place one ball in between 2 sheets of greased plastic or a wet muslin cloth and roll out the thalipeeth as thin as possible.
Meanwhile, heat the tawa. Lift one side of the plastic and place the thalipeeth directly onto the hot tawa. Carefully remove the plastic (make sure the plastic does not touch the tawa to avoid burning).
Cook well on both sides and smear with ghee.
Serve hot with dry garlic chutney or yogurt or raita or fresh coconut and chilli.
