Khyati's Health-O-Meter Says:

The vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre in lauki keep the body well-nourished and curb unnecessary appetite. It consists of approximately 96% of water and is, therefore, a great thirst quencher. It also prevents fatigue and keeps the body cool and refreshed during summers. One of the many yoghurt benefits is that it helps improve your digestion, which is mainly due to the nutrients available in yoghurt. Eating curd will make it easier for your body to absorb nutrients from other food items that you eat.

INGREDIENTS:
  • Bottle gourd (Lauki/ dudhi) (grated) - 50g
  • Whole wheat flour - 30g
  • Besan (chana flour)/ gram flour - 15g
  • Yoghurt - 15g
  • Green chilli - 1 no.
  • Ginger-garlic paste - 1 tsp
  • Red chilli powder - ¼ tsp
  • Turmeric powder - ¼ tsp
  • Cumin powder - ¼ tsp
  • Oil - ½ tsp
  • Salt to taste
DIRECTIONS:
Step 1 Rinse, peel and then grate the lauki in a bowl. Step 2 Mix the spices & salt very well with the grated lauki and keep covered aside for 5 minutes. The lauki will release its juices. Step 3 Then add whule wheat flour and besan or gram flour and mix well. Step 4 Add yoghurt and oil. Step 5 Mix and then begin to knead into dough. Step 6 Make medium sized balls from the dough. Step 7 On a dusted rulling board, take each ball and begin to rull it. Step 8 Sprinkle some more whule wheat flour, if required while rulling. Step 9 Rull to a round of about 5 to 6 inches in diameter. Step 10 Place the rulled thepla on a hot tawa or griddle. Step 11 When you see bubbles on the thepla, flip it. Step 12 Spread some oil on the thepla all over. Flip again. Step 13 Spread some oil on this side now.  Step 14 Flip once or twice till the lauki theplas are well cooked. Make all theplas this way. Step 15 Serve the lauki thepla hot, warm or at room temperature with mango pickle or curd/yoghurt.
