Ingredients
- 50 gm whole wheat flour
- 50 gm makka atta
- 50 gm bajra atta
- 50 gm jowar atta
- 50 gm barley or jau atta
- 50 gm ragi atta
- 50 gm rajgira or jaulai atta
- 25 gm soya atta
- 25 gm Sattu
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine all the flours: whole wheat flour, makka atta, bajra atta, jowar atta, barley or jau atta, ragi atta, rajgira or jaulai atta, soya atta, and sattu. Mix them well until evenly combined.
- Gradually add water to the flour mixture while kneading to form soft and pliable dough. Adjust the water quantity as needed to achieve the desired consistency.
- Once the dough is ready, cover it with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for about 15-20 minutes. This resting period helps the flours hydrate and improves the texture of the dough.
How to make chapatti
- After the resting period, divide the dough into small portions and shape them into balls.
- Take one dough ball at a time and flatten it using a rolling pin to make rotis or chapatis. Dust the rolling surface and the dough ball with a little atta to prevent sticking.
- Heat a tawa or griddle over medium heat and place the rolled roti or chapati on it. Cook on one side until small bubbles start to form, then flip it over and cook the other side until light golden brown spots appear. Repeat this process for the remaining dough balls.
- Serve the freshly cooked multigrain atta rotis or chapatis hot with your favorite side dishes, curries, or accompaniments.
- Note: This recipe is a general guide for making a multigrain atta dough. You can adjust the proportions of the flours to suit your preferences or specific dietary needs. Feel free to experiment with different combinations and add additional spices or herbs to enhance the flavor.
- By incorporating multigrain atta into your regular meals, you can enjoy the benefits of a variety of grains and elevate the nutritional value of your dishes.

Notes
1. Premix should be store in an air tight container and use a dry spoon to take out flour from it. Keep it at room temperature.
2. Don’t make a large quantity of premix at a time. Make a fresh premix every 8-10 days is preferable.
3. Dough for making chapatti should be softer than regular wheat flour chapatti dough.
4. To make dough of multigrain water use warm water and knead the dough for 2-3 minutes till it becomes smooth.
