Recipe
1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the multigrain bhajani flour, chopped onion, green chilies, coriander leaves, cumin seeds, sesame seeds, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt.
2
Gradually add warm water and knead the mixture into a soft, pliable dough that holds its shape.
3
Divide the dough into equal portions and shape them into smooth balls.
4
Take a damp cotton cloth or a piece of plastic sheet, place a dough ball on it, and gently pat it out with your fingers into a flat, round disk of medium thickness, making a small hole in the center.
5
Heat a tawa or flat griddle over medium heat and grease it lightly with oil.
6
Carefully invert the flattened thalipeeth from the cloth onto the hot tawa, peeling off the cloth gently.
7
Pour a teaspoon of oil or ghee into the central hole and around the edges.
8
Cook on medium heat until golden brown spots appear on both sides, pressing gently with a spatula.
9
Serve hot straight from the tawa with a generous dollop of fresh white butter.
