Ingredients

Instructions

1) Take the flour in a big bowl. Crush the methi (fenugreek) leaves in the palm and mix them with the flour.
2) Add all the spices to the mixture
3) If adding garlic, crush it and add to the flour
4) If adding sesame seeds, add it at this point
5) Add the cilantro leaves
6) Pour some water and start kneeding the dough. It should be a hard dough in order to roll out a flat bread. Apply some oil to the dough.
7) Take a wet towel and put it on the dough and let it rest for half an hour.
8) Make equal size of balls and roll out the ball with dusting some flour on the counter.
9)   Roast in on a flat pan allowing to roast both the sides of bread.
10) Apply some oil on both the sides of the bread to make it crispy.
11) Serve hot with curd/kethchup/butter/indian pickle.

(Note: It can also be eaten cold. This bread has a longer shelf life.)

Salma · I made Methis Thelpas yesterday. the only thing different was that I had to add curd instead of water while kneading the dough (this recipe with useful tip I found by http://www.mp3hunting.com SE)
(I am from Singapore but currently residing in Dubai and never knew about methis till I came here ;)
