Seyal Roti is a popular Sindhi dish that’s is served mainly for breakfast. For a gluten free version, I prepared this with Jowar (Sorghum flour) rotis. Its a simple, healthy and delicious breakfast item. The word Seyal in Sindhi means something which is cooked in a gravy with onion, garlic & tomatoes on slow flame or simmered till water dries. Its a dish that can be prepared either with left over rotis or with bread. Though essentially a breakfast item, it can also be had at lunch / dinner. In India, we do not generally believe in the concept of freezing food for long days and reheating it, perhaps because this being a tropical country. We also do not allow the food to remain in the refrigerator for more than a day and prefer to consume freshly cooked food on daily basis. Based on this concept, Seyal Roti is prepared with previous day's leftover rotis. Its also called Seyal Maani  when it is prepared with roti / Seyal Double Roti when prepared with bread / pav. In order to save time for preparing breakfast in the morning rush hours, this dish is prepared with the leftover rotis. However we can also make this using fresh rotis.   Seyal Roti with papad

This Bajra Upma is a very tasty & healthy breakfast item, Monsoon is here in western ghats. Along with it comes the chill. It has been customary to stock up Bajra during cooler seasons to cook few items to give the body much needed energy boost. Whole lot of other dishes can be made with millet flours other than plain Rotis. Mixed with the right proportion of some starchy flours like Tapioca or Arrowroot, gluten free flour mix can be made for baking cookies and cakes. Steamed millet flour makes delicious Puttu. Cooked millet flours make tasty Idiyappams. One such item is this Bajra Upma.

February 10th is celebrated as World Pulses Day. I am an avid fan of whole pulses / lentils. When I took a review of my posts so far, I realised I have as of today posted 22 recipes using whole pulses & legumes. I decided to compile all those recipes and make an eBook that you can download from my site.
