Multigrain Cheelas are delicately flavoured and are simple to prepare and also stomach-friendly. These healthy chillas are made with whole wheat, jowar, and ragi flour and are mildly spiced with green chilli paste. In order to keep the cheelas soft and give them a beautiful crunch, a sufficient amount of vegetables are added. Here's the recipe for multigrain Cheela.
