Very famous Gujarati delicacy, methi thepla that is usually made with wheat flour and besan, I modified it by adding soya flour in soya methi thepla and it still tastes the same.
Methi is the key ingredient in soya methi thepla that imparts the unique taste of theplas and masks the flavour of soya flour.
Fresh curds render softness to the soya methi thepla, make them for breakfast and enjoy them served with piping hot tea or as a snack with curds and pickle.
Traditionally for a meal soya methi thepla are usually served with potato bhaji, but best to serve with some homemade curd.
Tips for soya methi thepla: 1. Gradually add enough water to make a soft dough. We added 2 1/2 tablespoons of water. NOTE that less water is used as we have curds in the dough. 2. Let the paratha cook on medium flame till small bubbles appear on the paratha which should take about 20 seconds. Since this is thin it will cook faster.
