I always make for my son, and its me who ends up eating it, even now....I also like the powder....Seena, i dint get what this broken wheat is?....is it bulgur?and u asked to strain the water. Which one do we use, starined water or the wheat. Sorry yaar, confused. Wud like to try this one for my little one.let me know ok.Thx for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteShabs, I copied this from wiki for you, "Bulgur for human consumption is usually sold parboiled, dried and de-branned. Bulgur is sometimes confused with cracked wheat, which is crushed wheat grain that has not been parboiled." Hope you got.. :)
ReplyDeleteIn Kerala, we ask for sooji godhambu, and in UAE, we got packs of broken wheat or cracked wheat..
I have edited the recipe for you, if more doubts pls ask.. :)

ReplyDeleteHi Seena....
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to know if its one cup of broken wheat or one cup of milk squeezed from wheat.
This is just to know the right quantity of milk to be used.

No, one cup of wheat, and cow milk 3/4 cup.. :)
