Saat dhaan (seven cereals flour)
The good old days of preparing bhakari for the dinner are over now at least in cities. We say that young generation is deprived of fiber rich food, iron,calcium and so on n so forth.. . The natural fiber we get from husk of cereals is rarely present rather absent in ready made aatta what most of us bring for whatever reason.
One of my friends 'Varsha' who's originally from Konkan is an expert in making bhakaris. Once I visited her place and she served me delicious garamagaram bhakari with lasoon chatani and jhunka. When I asked she revealed me this 'saat dhaan bhakari ' recipe and so the secret of her good health. She shared her secret with me and so am I.
I make it a practice to prepare this saat dhaan bhakri twice a week for dinner and thalipith (of the same flour) once a week for the break-fast.
The flour preparation is really easy ( no need to roast etc. as in case of bhajani)
rice,jawari,bajari and nachni are taken in equal proportion say1 kg each
All are ground together and the flour made is not too fine like wheat flour but slightly coarse like bhajani.
