Notes

  • Drain the water completely from sabudana otherwise it will make the dough loose.
  • Roasted peanuts give a unique taste to the thalipeeth. So do not skip it.
  • Add coriander leaves and curry leaves generously because it will enhance the taste.
  • Keep the spice level bit more because sago is very bland and mild.
  • Do not pat the thalipeeth very thin as it will easily break when removing from griddle.
