This recipe was prepared by a lovely Mom – Shveta Sheth.

Tips and Suggestions by Mom Chef:-

• The gheeya/bottle gourd should be freshly grated for making the thepla or it will turn black in color.
• In place of ginger-green chili paste, grated ginger can be added.
• It is recommended to use iron tava while making the theplas.
• For methi thepla, the methi leaves should be washed and then chopped.
• The dough of the methi thepla should be rested for 15 to 20 minutes so that the thepla becomes soft.
• If a thin rolling pin is used, the thepla becomes thin.
• Using more oil while cooking the thepla, increases it’s shelf life.
