Bhajani Thalipeeth -a traditional Maharashtrian breakfast dish using multigrain flours and spices.
I have earlier shared the recipe of thalipeeth where I had used flours of various grains and pulses to make the dough. Today I have made thalipeeth using readymade thalipeeth bhajani which is made using 12 grains. The word ‘Bhajaney’ means ‘to roast’ in Marathi. All the ingredients are roasted and then ground into a flour. The ingredients in this flour are Sorghum ( Jowar), Pearl Millet ( Bajra), Chickpeas (Chana), Finger millet (Nachni), Split black gram (Udad),Moth beans ( Matki), Whole Green gram (moong) , Black eyed peas (Chawli), Rice (chawal), Wheat (gehu), Masoor (Whole red lentils), Poha (flattened rice) and spices. This makes for a healthy and delicious breakfast. It tastes great with mirchi thecha and curds.

Take a plastic sheet and place it on flat surface. Apply a drop of oil on the plastic sheet. Take a small portion of dough and place it on a plastic sheet. Flatten the dough ball into a circle using your fingers.
Make few holes on the thalipeeth.
Heat a pan. Place the thalipeeth on the pan. Drizzle some oil on the edges of the thalipeeth.
Cook both the sides evenly. Serve hot with mirchi thecha and curds.
Note :
- I have used “Taste for Life” thalipeeth bhajani. Since the flour already contains other spices, I have only added turmeric powder and chilly powder.
- I have used an earthern pan/tava to cook the thalipeeth. When using earthen tava, add a teaspoon of oil on the tava and then heat the tava.
