Sesame seeds are highly beneficial for the body during winter, and they feature prominently in a variety of dishes, including Tilgul and Chikki. In the Konkan region, Tilachi Poli is a particularly popular delicacy enjoyed during the colder months.
This special flatbread is not only delicious but also offers various health benefits. Yogita Parab, a housewife from Dombivli, shared her recipe for preparing this nutritious Tilachi Poli quickly, in just 10 minutes.
Ingredients for Making Tilachi Poli
The ingredients required are- half a bowl of sesame seeds, one bowl of roasted peanuts, one bowl of jaggery, one bowl of flour, one bowl of dry grated coconut, nutmeg powder and cardamom powder.
Recipe for Making Tilachi Poli
First, one should mix sesame seeds, peanuts, jaggery, grated coconut, nutmeg and cardamom powder. All the ingredients should then be combined and grinded in a mixer. The flour should then be kneaded until soft. Following this, the dough should be covered for half an hour and then then rolled.
One should start making the poli by taking a ball of flour and rolling it lightly. Then, two teaspoons of the mixture should be added from the mixer and a ball should be made before rolling it out again. One should aim to roll the poli as thinly as possible. Once a round shape is achieved, it should be roasted on a pan, and flipped to ensure that both sides are cooked. For added flavour, one can apply oil or ghee during the roasting process. The tilachi poli will then be ready to enjoy. One can savour it with a cup of tea or on its own.
