Kambu Aval Paal (Bajra Flakes Milk) - No cook Recipes

This is a very good choice to add Bajra or Pearl millet to our diet as it tastes just like rice. Unless said no one can find that its Bajra/ Kambu dish. Can substitute any other millet aval or millet flakes instead of Kambu or Bajra.

I have been trying to incorporate millets into various meals and was super thrilled to discover that millet flakes such as Bajra Flakes, Jowar Flakes, and Ragi Flakes are very easily available. Bajra is recommended for people with diabetes because of its high fibre content takes time to digest and results in a slow release of glucose into the bloodstream.

This very high-fibre property also helps in improving digestion and in eventual weight loss. Of course, it is also rich in iron, phosphorous, and magnesium.Bajra is said to increase body heat and so is avoided in summer. When I found Bajra Flakes, I was thrilled because I could now include this millet in my breakfast. Aval is known as flattened Rice, beaten rice or rice flakes in English. It is commonly called Poha or Chuda in the Hindi belt of India.  It fills your tummy with the requisite milk of the evening… It is such a comfort food, so you need to taste this humble mix. It is certainly very easy as a “no cook meal’ and not at all time-consuming, even for busy mothers and caretakers of children.
