[nileshnaidu28]

Hi manjula aunty..i made the thepalas today and it turned out soo well...my husband really liked it,im so grateful for your videos..a salute to you auntyji!!!

[NotSoOldHippy]

Ah, I love these. When I was in Bangalore I stayed at the Saint Marks Hotel and every morning they had these wonderful things available for lunch. Man, I need some of these! I wish I had an Indian spice store within bicycle distance of me. ;)

FANTASTIC recipe just made it for breakfast and hubby loved it. Thankfully i had fresh Methi leaves and the dough turned out just the same. I have got a good reputation now because of you Manjulaji. Im so so soooo grateful. Thank you so much.

[aditi1998]

Can we use this dough for making Khakra? Thanks, Manju aunty

[Manjulaskitchen]

@aditi1998

I have never made Khakra but try it.

[ebaysingh09]

I bought some froZen methi in a bag in california indian grocery store. The bag has several blocks of frozem methi. I hope this will work

[Manjulaskitchen]

@ebaysingh09

This will work

[sanrimful]

pardon me aunty for commenting on certain ingredients used as you are more senior and experienced cook than myself. However, being a Gujarati, this is a pancake that I always make. Instead of jeera, ajwain seeds are normally used, though optional. Yoghurt is also added and instead of chilli flakes, green chilli-ginger paste is used. Instead of chilli flakes, red chilli pdr can be used. Have never seen anyone using besan. I will try in the next time I make theplas to see how it tastes.

[sweetjyo]

Manjula aunty please advise me thatcan i use fresh green methi vegatable instead of dry one methi which you used?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@sweetjyo Fresh methi will be good

[aquim33]

Thank you for your dishes, regards from Mexico

[cat2009cat]

I did not know the green herb you add it what is name??

thanks Manjula

[sanrimful]

@cat2009cat those leaves are called fenugreek leaves. These are available fresh in Indian grocery stores or if there are no fresh ones, then u can try looking for them which come in packets and are dry. To use the dry ones, u must soak in water for about 5-10 mins.  The Indian name is "methi leaves" if that helps.

[aditi1998]

@cat2009cat it is methi...ferungeek leaves are known as methi in india.

Auntie,

I am not able to find HING, can I make this recipe without it?

[gouthu24]

Manjula Aunty, I cannot eat besan because of health probs, can I use something else?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@gouthu24

just do without besan still it taste great.

[Lowsidr]

I think the best compliment I could give you Manjula would be that you are convincing me to become a vegetarian. I don't just watch your recipes I make them....you are converting me one delicious meal at a time!

[Supportahol]

They look fantastic Manjula. Well done and thanks for sharing your wonderful talent of cooking.

[PepperAnn111elf]

I like your character (maybe "manner" is more what I mean, I'm not sure with the right translation) very much! It is fun to watch you making all that delicious food!

Thanks for your videos! :)

[simulbee]

Thank you thank you, I've been waiting for this!! Spectacular.

[wontonga]

Manjula,

Please tell me dear, why do you refer to these as bread and not pan cakes?

Thank you as always! Your videos are the ones we LOVE!

[cousiwa09]

every time i watch you just amaze me Manjula, with how you knead the dough in your recipes using only one hand....and it always turns out perfect! (I'm a shocker at kneading dough)

[wontonga]

@cousiwa09 - You said it!

[darbeau1]

I have trouble watching your videos on an empty stomach! You make me extra hungry! Yumm! Thank you so much for sharing your techniques and recipes with your audience.

[culinarymajik]

As always, looks so great, Manjula. Thank you!

[radicalrant]

[aishaAhmedAli]

ahhhhhhh that looks yummie munjala i love your channel and iam watching your cooking show on an empty stomach now iam hungry

[Patsymd]

You can mailorder spices from lots of places online. It's so much easier to get these things now.... don't be afraid :) P.S. Manjula, I continue to enjoy you so much. I wrote you a couple years ago about continuing to learn how to make Indian cuisine, and I sure do enjoy your recipes. Please keep them coming in 2011, and a blessed holiday season to you and your family!

[qualqui]

@Patsymd Hi, great tip about mailorder spices,...how about besan/graham flour? Some people say its similar to whole wheat but i noticed here Manjula uses both flours.

[KHOBIII]

manjula, i had asked u a favor, show us how to cook Kado

[katcornwall]

i love manjula......even if i don't try a certain recipe, i always learn something about technique.....thanx so much for your calm and careful cooking

[jessicaiyer]

@sinisterbella how did you comment??

[CraftyKoo]

Hmmm... fenugreek leaves are going to be hard to find. But I'll try my hardest because this looks GREAT!!

[GrowingMyBrain]

@CraftyKoo

yeah but when u find it be careful ..dont use much of it.....it strengthen the body's sweat odor..:s

[intezam]

@GrowingMyBrain

Lets use meethi tooooooo much, then everything smells of meethi - I love the smell

[GrowingMyBrain]

@intezam

i was talking about the sweat..not the smell of the methi..unless you like to smell like body sweat then go for it...XD

[TheBgcheez]

@CraftyKoo - found them on Sadaf. dot com

[twiity86]

@CraftyKoo u can easily find them at indian grocery stores

[moneyman10k]
