Methi Thepla is an Indian Bread or Flatbread made with whole wheat flour and finely chopped methi or fresh fenugreek leaves together with spices. This is a Gujarati delicacy that is considered one of the best travel food for vegetarians.
Methi Thepla is made with whole wheat flour. There are many versions of this recipe. Theplas are supposed to be thin, unlike parathas. They are cooked in oil (I love using groundnut oil) and not in ghee, traditionally. Theplas that are packed for travel requires more oil for longer shelf life.
