A healthy start to the day is what keeps the family fit. I love using multi grained flour for my daily parathas and rotis. Since we don’t get ready mixed flour, I mix my own at home and you’re right there are limits to which kind of flour we can add to it.
Thanks di, yeah we too use multigrain flour for every day but readymade. I find making such multigrain parathas more healthy then readymade flour
Parathas with different flours looks so healthy, on that addition of herbs and spice makes it more healthy and interesting . Just want to grab them with some tea now.

Paratha with multi grains sounds really healthy and delicious . Mixing different grains would naturally give us the benefit of each grain .
