Hi doctor.. Thanks to you n your blog. So so helpful for feeding my eleven month old boy baby. Just a quick question. Is there any other alternative to roast wheat n green gram other than using sand? Good sand availability is a problem n hygiene is another problem. Does sprouting both separately n then grinding them to a powder (like shown in your home made sprouted cerelac) a good alternative to sand roasting method?
Hi Vineetha,
Yes you cna dry roast them in kadai too, sprouting is also good idea, it increases the nutritious value of the grains
