ज्वारी चे थालिपीठ | Sorghum Thalipith | Jwari or Jowar Thalipith

Thalipith or Thalipeeth is one of the authentic food items of Maharashtra.Some times it is a great snack.some times an alternative for meals and is a healthy and tasty food of all the time.

Traditionally, the main ingredients added to Sorghum flour are Salt,Red chilly powder,little turmeric and finely chopped onions.Knead the dough with little oil.Make Dough balls and spread them through out the skillet or Kadhai with hands, keep on the flame to bake.While the first batch is baking repeat the same steps using other skillet or Kadhai and keep ready for the next batch.The final result was Thin but big crispy,tasty Thalipeeth.

I am sharing the recipe of Thalipith in which I have added grated carrot and finely chopped cabbage.

Thalipith with Hard/Crispy Texture


Soft Thalipith


 INGREDIENTS:

  1. Sorghum Flour/Jowar Flour - 2 Cups
  2. Grated Carrots - 1/4 Cups
  3. Finely chopped Cabbage - 1/4 Cups
  4. Red chilly powder - 1 Tbsp
  5. Turmeric Powder - 1/2 Tbsp
  6. Salt for taste
  7. Oil
STEPS:
  • Knead the dough along with other ingredients except oil in warm water.Make dough balls as shown picture below.Dough not be too sticky or too stiff
  • Coat each dough ball with oil.
  • Take a skillet and season it with oil.
  • Take a ball and start spreading it evenly on the skillet with hands.Make the holes.This very important to have it baked properly and to remove without sticking(In case non stick skillet is not used)
  • Keep the skillet on medium flame to bake.After some time, you will see that Thalipith has baked to a point where you can flip ot to the other side.Flip it and let it bake it on the other side.
  • Repeat the same steps every time
  • FOR HARD BUT CRISPY TEXTURE - Spread it thin and bake without covering it with lid.
  • FOR SOFT TEXTURE - Spread not too much thin and bake with covered lid for both the sides.
  • Thalipith is served with Yogurt.Can also spread some butter.
TIPS:
  • Always keep the dough covered in order to keep it moist.
  • Thalipith in kadhai gives better results if you have real flame and not glass top or Induction.
  • You can add vegetables of your choice.
  • You can also have vegetables as toppings.Just sprinkle the vegetables on the spread dough tap with fingers.
