    This recipe in EnglishDhebra can be prepared either by frying in a Kadhai (like puri) or on a Tawa (like parantha). Whichever seems easier you can follow that particular method to prepare Gujarati Methi Dhebra.Green Methi(Fenugreek leaves) and Bajra(millet) flour is available in the market during winters. If you can not find green Methi then you can replace it with Kasoori Methi. Do make this appetizing dish this winter season.Ingredients for Gujarati Methi DhebraBajra flour- 250 grams(2 cup)Wheat flour - 175 grams (1.5 cup)Suji(semolina) - 100 grams ( 3/4 cup)Cornflour - 50 grams (1/3 cup)Green Methi leaves - 2 cupTil(sesame seeds) - 1 tbspJeera(cumin) - 1/2 tspSour curd - 200 grams (1 cup)Gur(jaggery) - 1 tspSalt - add to taste (1 tsp)Green chilli - 2Ginger- 1 inch long pieceRed chilli powder - less than 1/4 tspTurmeric powder - less than 1/4 tspOil - to fry Dhebra- How to make Gujarati Methi DhebraFilter Bajra flour, wheat flour, Suji , cornflour and keep it aside in a utensil.Wash Methi leaves and chop them finely after removing water. Break off the stem from the green chillies, wash them remove their seeds and chop into small pieces. Mix Gur in curd and blend well.Make a crater in the middle of the flour, put Gur mixed with curd, 1 tbsp oil and all the spices. Mix all the ingredients properly and with the help of water knead a dough similar to that of a puri. Cover the dough and leave it aside for 30 minutes.After 30 minutes press the dough well and make a good dough. Now break of small pieces(lemon sized) from the dough and keep aside.Pour oil in a pan and heat. Take one piece of dough, using oil or dry flour roll into a little thick puri , 3 inches in diameter. Now put the puri in hot oil , pres it with a ladle to make Dhebra puffy. Fry till both sides turn brown. Place the fried Dhebra on a plate covered with a paper napkin. Repeat with the other Dhebra. You can fry 2-3 Dhebra at a time in the pan.To cook Dhebra on a Tawa, place Tawa on gas and heat it. Break off pieces from the dough and roll into balls. Flatten these into a circle 5-6 inches in diameter(using dry flour/oil), thin as parantha. Place the rolled Dhebra on the heated Tawa and cook it by applying oil till both sides turn brown. Now place Dhebra on a plate and keep it in a casserole after it cools off.Serve Dhebra with pickle or Chutney. You can also prepare Aloo Matar with Dhebra as the two taste delicious together.Dhebra can be stored in the fridge and eaten for 5-6 days. Take out Gujarati Methi Dhebra from the fridge, heat it and eat.Serves - 4 to 5Cooking time - 1 hour

  4. 28 February, 2011 12:20:11 PM priya

    is it alright if i use gehu ka atta instead of bajre ka atta and makki ka atta?
    निशा:
    प्रिया, जी हां गेहूं के आटे और सूजी से भी अच्छा स्वाद आयेगा.

    nisha ji agar main bajre ki jagah jowar ka aata use karun to chlaega??
    निशा:
    मीनाक्षी, आपआप बाजरे की जगह ज्वार की आटे का प्रयोग भी कर सकती हैं.

    Nishaji mere ghar me bahut sara dalda ghee rakha hai. plz mujhe bataye use use kaise karu, kunki kuchh bhi fry karne baad wo chipak jata aur khane me muh me ata hai.plz plz plz.
    निशा:
    दीपिका, डालडा का यूज तो चीजों को फ्राई करने, मठरी, शकरपारे या स्वीट बनाने या पूरी तलने में किया जाता है लेकिन आपको इसका स्वाद ही नहीं पसन्द आ रहा है, फिर तो आपको ही सोचना हो कि इसे खतम करना है. मैं नमकीन चीजें रिफाइन्ड और स्वीट बनाने के लिये देशी घी का स्तेमाल करती हूँ.

    hi nishaji,itried dhebra three four times taste was nice but dhebra does puff please tell me the reason.please reply soonnnnnnnnnnnn.
    निशा:
    मंजू, आटे को गूथ कर आधा घंटा रखा रहने दें, शुमिल शुमिल कर चिकना करें, तेल को पर्याप्त गरम होने दें (पर्याप्त गरम तेल में आटे का कोई टुकड़ा डालने पर, आटे का टुकड़ा तुरन्त तैर कर ऊपर आ जाता है, ढेवरा तेल में डालने से पहले गरम तेल को टैस्ट करें).

    Hi Nishaji,khakhra or fafda ki ek recepi hoti hai kya,agar nahi to plz khakhra ki recepi kya hai plz bataye.
    निशा:
    निहारिका, फाफड़ा की रैसिपी आप सर्च बटन पर लिखकर देख सकती हैं. खाखरा भी होते हैं.

  11. 10 May, 2011 12:29:31 PM Parul

    Hi Nishaji, i have only wheat atta and besan right now and always (living outside india so other attas r not always easily available).so pls tell me atta proportion that i can take.pls reply soon.
    निशा:
    पारुल, आप 3 कप गेहूं का आटा और 1 कप बेसन ले लीजिये.

  12. 18 November, 2011 12:47:40 PM Manisha

    Nishaji, can i use besan instead of makke da atta?
    निशा:
    मनीषा, बेसन डाला जा सकता है, लेकिन मक्का के आटे का स्वाद कुछ अलग होता है.

  14. 17 February, 2012 09:30:49 PM nitima

    nishaji kya hume sooji kachi dalni hai ya bhunj ke?
    निशा: प्रिया, सूजी कच्ची लेनी है.

  22. 19 August, 2013 04:54:44 AM priya

    aatte mai aisa kya dale taki fry karte waqt oil kam absorb ho ?
    निशा: प्रिया, आटे में कुछ भी डालने की आवश्यकता नहीं हैं, तेल अच्छा गरम हो तब तलें, अधिक तेल एब्सोर्ब नहीं होगा.

    agar gud nahi dalna chahe toh?
    निशा: पल्लवी जी, गुड़ नहीं डालना चाहती तो नहीं डालें, ढेवरा अच्छे बनेंगे.

    This recipe very nice.......sirf wheat flour se nahi bna sakte kya? plzzz ans. My que.


    निशा: plyush jI, ये मिक्स आटे से बना ढेवरा है, आप सिर्फ गेहू के आटे से भी इसे बना सकते हैं.

  31. 21 January, 2016 09:31:20 PM yogita

  32. 21 January, 2016 09:35:55 PM yogita

    Hi mam. .vo Methi ke dhebra mai agar makke ka atta na dhale to..?
    निशा: योगिता जी, कोई बात नहीं, बिना मक्के का आटा डाले भी ढेबरा बनाये जा सकते हैं.

  33. 01 August, 2017 03:02:28 PM sayara

    Apki methi debra recepi bot pasand ai aur ghewu ke aate wali koi achi recepi bheje jisme menda na ho
    निशा: सायरा जी, धन्यवाद. आप मेरी वेबसाइट ओर यूट्यूब चैनल पर गेहूं के आटे से बनी बहुत सी रेसिपी देख सकती हैं.
