#Dussehra Tilachi Poli, is a popular Maharashtrian sweet roti. It is stuffed with a mixture of nutty sesame, crunchy peanuts and jaggery. Taste great with a smear of ghee. The sesame seeds are extremely rich in calcium, hence Tilachi Poli is a healthy tiffin snack for kids. Instead of the traditional “til gul” ladoo, I used the til gul mixture as the stuffing and made it a paratha.
