Suji, or semolina, is one of the best healthy grains known to Indians. It is used in a number of Indian dishes, but south Indians use it extensively in their breakfast dishes and even desserts. Dosa and upma are two of the most loved south Indian dishes that are made from semolina or suji, and when it comes to desserts, the rava kesari or suji ka halwa or sheera is also very popular. Suji is made from rough, coarsely ground whole wheat, and hence, is healthier than our refine wheat preparations. Dishes made from suji are delicious too, as the grain gives the dishes a lovely and unique texture. It’s light on the stomach, as it is easily digestible, and hence, suji preparations are great to be consumed as mid-meal snacks. If you are on a diet and looking to replace your all-purpose flour with a healthier alternative, then suji may be a great pick. It may even help you lose weight, if used in the proper manner and can be easily incorporated in your daily diet.
