  • For making thalipeeth, one can use a wet cloth or parchment paper.
  • Flip the thalipeeth on the medium hot pan.
  • Cook it on a medium stove using ghee.

Notes

  • Try to maintain the ratio of Sabudana and Potato.
  • If your thalipeeth breaks a lot while making thalipeeth, it means either it has not soaked properly, or you have added less potato.
  • If you follow the above ratio, it should be good.
