Dhapate

Ingredients

• 1 cup jowar or bajra flour
• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/2 cup grated bottle gourd or cabbage
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 1 tsp cumin seeds
• 1/2 tsp red chilli powder
• Coriander, chopped, salt, water, oil

Method

1. Mix the flours with the grated vegetable, onion, cumin seeds, chilli powder, coriander and salt.
2. Add water gradually to form a soft, slightly sticky dough.
3. Pat portions directly into thin rounds on a hot greased tawa using wet fingers (dhapate are patted like thalipeeth, but softer).
4. Drizzle oil around the edges and cook covered until the base is golden.
5. Flip and cook through; serve hot with curd or pickle.
