Making Thalipeeth:

  1. Dampen a muslin cloth or cotton kitchen napkin with water and spread it over the rolling board. The cloth should be moist. Meanwhile, heat a tawa (griddle).
  2. Take a portion of the dough, roll it into a ball, and flatten it on the moistened cloth.
  3. Gently press and flatten the dough with your fingers to create a flatbread about ¼ inch thick. Sprinkle a few drops of water on the dough while flattening if needed.
  4. Make a hole in the center or create 3 to 4 holes around the edges to aid in even frying.
  5. Spread a little oil on the hot tawa. Adjust the flame to medium-high and place the thalipeeth on it, with the side touching the tawa.
  6. Carefully peel off the muslin from the rolled thalipeeth dough.
  7. Drizzle some oil into the holes and around the edges.
  8. Cover with a lid and cook the thalipeeth for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the base becomes golden and crisp. Adjust the browning according to preference.
  9. Flip the thalipeeth and cook the second side until brown spots appear.
  10. Remove from heat and serve hot.
  11. If not serving immediately, stack the thalipeeth in a roti basket or casserole to keep them warm.
  12. Serve the thalipeeth with white butter, fresh curd, pickle, or thecha.
