Cooking Steps
Wash and chop the fenugreek leaves.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the fenugreek leaves, whole wheat flour, gram flour, turmeric powder, red chili powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well.
Add water as needed to make a soft dough.
Cover the bowl with a lid or a plastic wrap and let the dough rest for 15-20 minutes.
After resting, divide the dough into small portions and roll them into thin circles.
Heat a non-stick tawa or griddle over medium heat.
Spray some oil on the tawa or griddle.
Place the thepla on the tawa and cook until the bottom turns golden brown and crispy.
Flip the thepla and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the other side is also golden brown.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough.
Serve hot with yogurt or pickle.
