Thalipeeth

Thalipeeth is the perfect vehicle to transport multi grain flours. It's spicy, it's crispy, it pairs well with butter AND you can add any combo of flours. You can make it with just 3 Rice, Wheat and Jowar or with 5 with Besan, Bajra. I've added Rajgira Flour (Amaranthus) and toasted Flax Seed Powder. You can add black sesame or poppy seeds, garlic, chopped dil leaves.. There is no limit to the customizations possibilities. I personally like such foods. You can make them often and they never taste the same! If you leave out the wheat flour, it's totally gluten free too! 

The Husband is not very fond of 'weird' flours as he calls them. In the past I've fed him one too many odd tasting chapatis 😅 however he very happily approved of this roti. 

Opening my 20hr fast, I had 3 small ones for my OMAD with curd spiced with green chutney. With reduced food, it becomes more important to focus on the quality of food. Trying to fit in all the macros is a difficulty task. Thalipeeth with its various flours has it all.
