Stoneground Amaranthus | Rajgira Flour 500g

Stoneground rajgira (amaranth) flour, a traditional favourite for vrat and festive cooking.

Our Rajgira Flour is made from amaranth grains that are stone-milled into a fine flour with a nutty, slightly earthy flavour. It's widely used during Navratri and other fasting days, and it's just as good in everyday rotis, puris and sweets. No additives.

How to use it

• Rajgira roti and thepla: Mix with boiled mashed potato and knead with warm water. The potato helps bind the dough.
• Puris and parathas: Roll thick and fry or cook on a tawa.
• Sheera and laddoos: Roast in ghee until fragrant, then add jaggery or sugar.
• Baking: Use in place of part of the flour in pancakes, cookies and flatbreads.

Ingredients

100% amaranth (rajgira).

Allergen and safety guidance

Amaranth is naturally gluten-free, but this flour may contain traces of wheat or other cereals from growing, milling or packing. It is not guaranteed suitable for people with coeliac disease. If you are fasting for religious reasons, please check that it suits your practice.

Storage

Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Stoneground flour is best used fresh, so store it in the fridge in humid weather.
