Wheat/Bajra Chapatis(Indian flatbread) mashed with Desi Ghee & Jaggery(gur)
Churma
I have such fond memories of having churma/choorma with my siblings, when I was growing up. We would often fight for little extra(haha). Now every time I make churma for my kids, it bring back memories from my childhood when my mother would make churma ladoos ( churma balls) for me, so I have an emotional bond with churma! It is simple and super easy to make, requires little effort & ingredients & is finger licking good! It is made with leftover whole wheat or bajra (millet) chapatis. It is safe to consume leftover chapati (basi roti) within 12-15 hrs).

You can add dry fruits(few, coarsely grinded) and powdered green cardamom(a pinch) as well but I like it simple!

1. Make small pieces and coarsely grind the chapatis in a grinder.
2. Take a pan and on low flame add Desi ghee, let it melt.

Voila it’s done!
Churma/choorma
I had this amazingly delicious churma made from Bajra (Millet) chapatis at Welcome hotel Khimsar Fort and Dunes, Rajasthan and it’s a must try if you happen to visit there!😊
