How to make Multigrain Atta at home ?

Homemade Chapathi Flour:

9 Mar 2013





Multigrain Atta :



Chapati / Indian bread or Roti is a dish which is made in almost every part of India!!

To make this healthy chapatti, we use to purchase store-bought Multi-grain Atta flour. Recently, I
tried to prepare the multigrain Atta flour at home.

Well, fresh flour is fresh...!

Its amazing the difference in taste, youll notice when you eat chapati / roti/ phulkas and other
goodies made from flour that has been freshly ground.

There is no need to worry, if the store bought flour is a little on the old side and is likely to be with lot
of maida and other things mixed in it.

Heres the proportion we used to prepare homemade Multi Grain Atta, which is totally adulteration
free & healthy on a whole..:)

Homemade Multigrain Atta Recipe - Ingredients
Preparation Time : 1 day | Processing Time : 10 mins | Makes : 2.5 kgs
Recipe Category: Homemade Flour | Recipe Cuisine: Indian

Whole Wheat(Punjab Gothumai) - 2 kg
Oats - 100 gms
Maize - 100 gms
Ragi - 50 gms
Chana Dal - 100 gms
Soya Bean - 50 gms
Note : If you want cup measures you can have a ratio of 2.5 cups(wheat) : 1 cup(multigrains)
We usually grind punjab whole wheat and samba wheat together in the ratio 2:1 for normal chapathi flour.
Method:
1. Wash all the grains well and let it dry in sunshade for at least for a day till it is completely dry. Then
give it for grinding, I gave it to the mill.

2. Allow it to cool for sometime.Sieve it twice and discard the coarse mixture that is retained. while
sieving Store in airtight container.

Serve hot with a generous serving of ghee, heaven I say :)

My Notes:
Dry the multigrains completely before giving it to grind.
Dont add more ragi and soya than the quantity mentioned else it will give
a raw taste and ragi will change the color too.
You can even roast the multigrains(except whole wheat) till a nice aroma
rises. Then combine with wheat and give to grind though I havent tried it
personally.
You can even add barley and other grains as per your preference.
