thalipeeth recipe | how to make thalipeeth | maharashtrian thalipith with step by step photo and video recipe. there are several ways the indian flatbread recipes are prepared which is generally prepared with single grain flour. thalipeeth recipe is one such flat bread prepared mainly with a combination of flours with the addition of spices like coriander and cumin. in addition, onion and other veggies can also be added to make it complete meal by itself.
i have already shared the other variant of this recipe i.e jowar roti and jolada rotti which is prepared in a similar way. but this recipe of thalipeeth is very authentic and traditional one native to maharashtrian or marathi cusine. perhaps this recipe is the most request recipe and it was long overdue because of the ingredients. basically, i was not able to get the key ingredient i.e fresh bajra flour in my place here. unfortunately, whenever i plan to shop it, it was either out of stock or almost expired with stale flour. eventually, it got delayed and i had to wait till it matched my shopping date. but luckily i was able to get hold of it this easter holiday, during my recent trip to sydney.
while the thalipeeth recipe is very easy to prepare, yet some tips, recommendations and serving ideas for it. firstly, i have added onions to this recipe and hence cannot be used for vrat or as fasting recipe. but it is not mandatory and can be easily skipped if you not like to. secondly, thalipeeth is generally served with plain yogurt/curd with either fresh butter or pickle as a side dish. alternatively, you can also serve these with any choice of curries like sprouts masala, bhaingan bharta or stuffed eggplant curry. lastly, you can prepare the flour mix or aka bhajani flour well ahead in advance for future use. basically, the proportions would be the same used in the recipe.
