Take the methi leaves in a large mixing bowl. Add til. Add the ground masala. Add salt to taste. Add ½ cup water and 2-3 tablespoons oil. Mix everything together. When ur mixture is ready.. slowle keep adding atta little by little and keep mixing till u get a smooth and soft dough. Don’t make it too hard. Take another spoon of oil in ur hand and cover the dough evenly with the oil.. cover and keep overnight... this is how the dough looks like .




Roll the theplas and fry with generous amount of ghee or oil.
Roast them soft and Serve hot with chilli pickle and curds. Superb combination. If u roast them hard..then they can also be eaten plain as khaakras.
Methi theplas are very tasty and nutritious as methi leaves have a high iron content. 
These theplas even last for 2-3 days easily so u can make them and carry them if u r travelling on trains and want to carry home food
