Jowar Breakfast Ideas: Make At Home, Not From Bazaar 

By Jasmine Kaur

The healthy millet is a great addition to one’s breakfast. From parathas to dosa and bhel, there are plenty of dishes you can make with jowar. 

Jowar Cheela 

The desi pancake is usually made with besan but this recipe adds a healthy touch of jowar to the batter. Pour on a pan, make it crisp and serve with chutney. 

Jowar Paratha 

A delicious Indian flatbread that cannot be missed from the breakfast table, this jowar paratha is made with jowar atta, onions and methi. Serve with fresh curd. 

Jowar-Bajra Bhel 

A slightly offbeat breakfast idea, this jowar-bajra bhel can be your nashta and snacks too. Crunchy, nutritious and full of flavour, this bhel is a must-try. 

Jowar Dosa 

Rice flour batter is substituted by a jowar flour batter that is used to make this healthy dosa for breakfast. Pair the crunchy dosa with coconut chutney. 

Jowar Upma

The semolina-based upma is made with roasted jowar atta, filled with vegetables like peas, potatoes, carrots and onions. Top with some lime juice and enjoy the tangy touch.
