Methi Thepla with Mango Chhunda

Last Updated on

Today I shared “Methi Thepla with Chhunda”,
and adopt this combo from Gujarati region. It’s a really good option for
breakfast or tiffin or travelling meal. Theplas mostly served with curd and
chhunda. For methi theplas, you have to prepare smooth dough with flour and
fenugreek and cook soft and thin shallow fried flatbread. You can change the fenugreek
with other like carrot and gourd for more variation. Yogurt makes dough soft
and healthy and very delicious too.
This time I prepare instant chhunda for this
combo, generally chhunda takes more than week to cook under sunlight. But I
prefer to choose stove version. Here is recipe:
