Charishma's Addictive Indian Methi Theplas

1. 1

   Heat a non-stick griddle (tawa) on medium flame.

2. 2

   Chef's Tip: Apply a little oil on your right palm so as to not allow the flour and remaining mixture which you'll be kneading next to stick to your palm.

3. 3

   Knead all the ingredients thoroughly well in a big bowl.

4. 4

   Pinch off small round balls of the dough.

5. 5

   Flatten on the palm of your hand.

6. 6

   Using a rolling pin, roll out each round ball to form a 'thepla'.

7. 7

   Repeat the same procedure for all the round balls.

8. 8

   Put each thepla on the tawa and cook on one side until it starts to show small bubbles (brown specs will begin to appear on the side facing down on the griddle).

9. 9

   Using a spoon, drop a little oil all around the thepla while it is cooking side-down.

10. 10

    The oil should not be dropped on the raw side facing up.

11. 11

    It must fall around the underside of the thepla or the reverse side.

12. 12

    After 10 seconds, flip the thepla over and cook on this side as well.

13. 13

    Again, drop a little oil on the underside of the thepla.

14. 14

    Press down with a spoon on the thepla to ensure it cooks well on both sides.

15. 15

    After a minute, using a small clean napkin, press the thepla on portions that are not throughly cooked, if any.

16. 16

    Keep turning the thepla for a few seconds using the napkin.

17. 17

    Serve hot with yoghurt or raita of your choice.

18. 18

    Enjoy!
