Barley and Wheat Lapsi

Lapsi step by step instructions:

Lapsi is prepared with half broken wheat and jaggery. It is an ideal and very healthy breakfast for cold winters; and definitely, can be enjoyed during any time of the day of the year.

Today I prepared lapsi with Barley and Wheat. The taste was equally good.

Let us start cooking!!!

Ingredients:
Half broken wheat (Gehun daliya): a little less than ½ cup
Half broken barley (Jau daliya): a little less than ½ cup
Water: 4 cups
Jaggery: 200 gms
Ghee: 1 tbsp
Almond slivers for garnishing

Method:

1. In a heavy bottomed pan heat ghee.
2. Roast daliya until it changes its colour stirring continuously.

3. Now add 2.5 cups of water and cook for 7-8 minutes.

4. Meanwhile take jaggery in another pan and add 1.5 cups of water. Cook until a boil comes and the jaggery is completely dissolved.

5. Sieve the jaggery water and add this water to the daliya.

6. Cook on a low flame for about 25-30 minutes stirring occasionally.

7. The daliya will be in a semi-liquid state.
8. Garnish with almond slivers and serve hot.
9. A very healthy lapsi is ready.

Tips:
1. The quantity of water can be adjusted as per how liquid you want your lapsi to be.
2. Take care that the daliya doesn’t stick to the pan’s bottom.
3. If the jaggery is too hard then you should crush it a little before adding water to it.
4. Always sieve the jaggery water as there might be some impurities in the jaggery which you won't like in your lapsi.
