Bajre Ka Raab (Traditional Winter Wellness Drink)

🍳 Method

1️⃣ Prepare the Mixture

In a large mixing bowl, combine bajra flour, salt, black salt, cumin seeds, and ajwain.
Add the curd and whisk thoroughly to form a thick, smooth paste.

2️⃣ Dilute Gradually

Slowly pour in 1 cup of water, whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
Once smooth, add the remaining 3 cups of water and mix well to achieve a thin, uniform consistency.

3️⃣ Simmer and Thicken

Transfer the mixture to a heavy-bottomed pan.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Simmer until the raab thickens noticeably but remains pourable and soup-like.

4️⃣ Garnish and Serve

Pour the hot raab into a traditional clay kulhad or serving bowl.
Drizzle with ghee, sprinkle roasted cumin powder, and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
Serve warm.

💡 Tips

• Constant stirring is essential — bajra settles quickly and can burn

• Control consistency as it cools; add a splash of warm water if needed

• Best consumed fresh and warm
