Multi-flour spicy paratha(Thalipeeth).

Posted On October 6, 2018

Today’s dish actual name is Thalipeeth, which is a Maharashtrian traditional food. This recipe is made using  5 different cereal flours, thus makes it a fibre-packed food. It tastes better when made spicy.  In the traditional way, this paratha is made with hand by patting. But for ease, I made a dough in such a way that it can be rolled easily using rolling pin.
