    Godhumai Rava Adai is a tasty and healthy Adai with mixed dal and  Godhumai Rava perfect for breakfast /dinner  Adai batter comes so handy for a quick tiffin.

    I have been exploring my option to skip rice for dinner. Recently we have started eating cracked wheat/Godhumai Rava/bulgar and quinoa a lot. 
    One of our frequent favorite dinners is Cracked Wheat Idli

    Recently I thought of preparing Cracked Wheat Pongal and was about to soak moong dal. That is when I realized I have leftover soaked toor dal in the fridge. In the morning I soaked toor Dal for Sambar but since the quantity was more have kept some uncooked dal in the fridge.

    That is when I realized instead of making Pongal it is better to make Adai. I have tried Quinoa Adai but never tried Godhumai rava.

    I was very doubtful about how it will be but still thought of giving Godhumai rava Adai a try. Had Idli batter in the fridge so worst case if it didn’t work. I have palm B🤣

    Have soaked everything for Adai and till I made gothumai rava Adai I was all thinking about how it would turn out. Without telling anything I served Adai to my husband after serving the first  Godhumai rava Adai  I waited like a student who wait for the result. After tasting it hubby said it was different. I don’t know what he meant by that. After some time I heard a voice next to Adai Enga. Then I was like Yesss pass.

    I told him it was godhumai rava Adai. He said it tasted good and if it is without rice you should make it often 😊

      Hey, I made this recipe today morning for breakfast. I made with ghee and served with sambar. It was very tasty, I found a trick to serve cracked wheats to my hubby who generally does not like them. Thanks dear!!
