Methi Thepla/ Gujarati Methi Thepla
Methi thepla /Gujarati methi thepla is very healthy and tasty roti too. Methi means fenugreek leaf and Thepla means mixture of various flours, pan fried and mildly spiced .I always pair it with okra raita and I absolutely love it. I made this for my potluck party and everyone enjoyed it. This was little bit similar to methi paratha but not entirely same. I try to make this atleast once or twice in a month whenever I can get fresh methi on hand. Its easy to make and everyone will enjoy it.
