As the name suggest it is a flour made up of many types of grains and pulses...
It is difficult sometimes for us to include them in our diet. This flour is a healthy way to do so and also brings a different flavor to your dishes.
We use this flour specially for making thalipeth - the Maharashtrian style paratha....
Ingredients
- 11/2 kg rice (washed and dried)
- 1/2 kg jowar
- 1/2 kg bajra
- 100 gm chickpeas (dal)
- 100 gm dried yellow peas
- 100 gm black urad (whole)
- 100 gm moong (whole)
- 100 gm masoor (whole)
Method
- Rice is sprayed with pesticides, hence we need to wash it first and then dry it in the afternoon sun for almost 2-3 hrs.
- We have to roast the grains and pulses one by one...take a heavy bottom vessel for roasting.
- Let's start with rice. Roast it on a medium flame until the rice starts getting golden brown in color.
- When the rice is done take it out in a wide container and let it cool.
- Similarly, roast the jowar, bajra and other pulses, each separately.
- After roasting, add them to the container having rice.
- When they cool down, mix them well and grind the mixture in a flour mill.
- Your multi-grain-pulse flour is ready!!
You see ... a lot of nutrients !!
This flour can be used in making parathas, puris and more...
And thalipeths are just coming!!
Enjoy :)
Enjoy :)
