100% pure and USDA certified Dalia Wheat. Grown without any pesticides, chemicals, fertilizers with no polish or artificial additions are done to it. 

Dalia is made by cracking a special kind of whole wheat which makes it high in fibers coming from the bran or husk. This helps in weight loss by giving you a feeling of fullness as well as with digestion by preventing constipation. It is also a rich source of proteins and essential vitamis. It is a perfect breakfast that will provide you the energy you need to start your day. It can be enjoyed either sweet with milk or spiced with vegetables. Also called Daliya, Dhaliya or Broken wheat

Dalia or porridge, as it is called in English, is the Indian cracked wheat that makes a nutritious and sumptuous breakfast. It is also known as Bulgur wheat. Dalia has a chewy texture that becomes soft upon cooking. 

Dalia is considered to be better than whole wheat flour because it is not processed like wheat flour. Dalia is a form of cracked wheat that retains its nutrition intact.

Let us learn a quick recipe of making sweet Dalia, also called wheat porridge.

Sweet dalia recipe- Serves 4 people

Ingredients:

Ghee or cooking oil- 2 tsp. 

Sugar- as per taste 

Dalia- 1 cup 

Milk - 2 cups 

Cardamom powder- ½ teaspoon 

Almonds and pistachios (well cut)- 1 tablespoon 

Raisins-10-12 

Method:

• Wash Dalia well in clean water. 
• Heat the ghee or oil in a thick-bottomed pan.
• Add the washed dalia and roast on low-medium heat with constant stirring till it starts to turn golden brown. It will take around 1 minute. This is an important step as one must not over roast Dalia (it will become hard).
• Add 2 cups of milk. Cook Dalia in milk with constant stirring till the milk boils. The dalia will soften and not be crisp anymore. Add cardamom powder, sugar, nuts, and raisins and let it simmer for another minute on a low-medium flame, with constant stirring.
• You can refrigerate Dalia once it becomes cool and eat it later or you can even eat it hot.
• This creamy, nutty, and delicious wheat porridge recipe makes for a super healthy breakfast and also a finger-licking dessert.

Note: You can also replace sugar with jaggery or brown sugar for a healthier option.
