Beriche Thalipith

Making ghee at home is very tuff job for me because I don't like the smell :( . The good part is that Beri. Beri is the residue left behind after straining ghee. It is called 'Beri' in Marathi and 'Ghashi' in kannada. Instead of going in the details of making Ghee, I will suggest you to see the method from Bhagyashri's Taste Buds. Which is very clear and detail. Most of us ate this Beri with sugar. But my Mai aaji used to make thalipith of Beri. It is just crispy and tasty.




 
 
Ingredients

Beri - 1/2 cup

Jowar flour- 1/2 cup

Besan - 3 tablespoons

Rice flour - 2 tablespoons

Bajra flour - 2 tablespoons

Atta (whole wheat flour) - 1/2 cup

Cumin powder - 1/2 teaspoon

Coriander powder - 1/2 teaspoon

Red chilli powder - 1-2 teaspoon

Chopped fresh coriander - 2 tablespoons

Oil - 4-5 tablespoons

Salt to taste





Procedure

Crumble the beri and make it soft. Mix all the ingredient for except oil and make a soft dough with water. Spread 1 table spoon oil on the surface of flat frying pan. Keep one of the dough ball in the centre of the pan. Using your palm and fingers flatten the dough into a round even roti. (apply some water to your palm before it.) Make 2-3 holes with the your finger. Add 1-2 drops of oil in each of these holes. Cover the lid and cook for 2 min. Turn the side and roast other side. Serve the crispy thalipith with pickle.

  5. Preeti,
    In bengali the residue left behind after straining ghee is called 'Shor Bhaja'. I love to eat that with hot chappati and little bit of salt. It tastes heaven. But you have given me a whole new idea to relish this. Thanks for sharing this:-)

  16. Priti, it's very nice usage of beri. Even i use the leftover with making roti dough, dal or subji. It adds a wonderful taste!

    Though, i don't any find difficulty to make a Ghee at home. I prepare the same way as Bhagyashri as we resides outside of India. :)
