Homemade Health mix powder | Satthu mavu for Babies & Toddlers
I am going to share with you my homemade health mix powder or satthu maavu for babies & toddlers.
You don't have to buy the expensive health mix at the store, make this easy and delicious, flavorfull satthu mavu at home following this easy
INGREDIENTS :-
Rice - 1.5 cup ( I used boiled rice)
Barley - 1 cup
Roasted Gram Dal / Pori Kadalai / Pottu Kadalai - 1 cup
Whole Black Urad Dal - 1 cup
Green Gram Dal - 1 cup
Yellow Moong Dal / Pasi Paruppu - 1/2 cup
Masoor Dal - 1/2 cup
Broken Wheat /Dalia - 1 cup
Cashew - 1/2 cup
Badam / Almond - 1/2 cup
Cardamom / Yelakai - 10 pods
Preparation and Method
Clean all the ingredients. If you buy branded organic ingredients, you can skip this step as mostly it is clean and can be used as such.
Dry roast all the ingredients (except cardamom)separately until you get a nice aroma of roasted ingredients. Spread the roasted ingredients on a plate to cool. Then mix everything together.
Get it ground in a flour mill to a fine powder. Spread it on a plate to cool and then store it in an air tight container or stainless steel container. Those who are staying abroad, can prepare less quantity and dry grind it in a mixie.
Shelf Life
This powder has a shelf life of 3-4 months at room temperature. If kept in the freezer, it can be kept for more than 6 months.
How to prepare porridge/kanji with this health mix powder:-
Mix 1-2 tsp of health mix powder with enough water without lumps. Cook on low flame, stirring continuously until it starts thickening. Then add needed milk and jaggery (filtered) or natural cane sugar. Your porridge/sathu maavu kanji is ready.
I love to add chopped dates and a tsp of extra virgin coconut oil to porridge. It tastes all the more delicious & very healthy.
Dates for above 8 months baby...below 8 months you can add grated or chopped apple or banana.
Some baby does not like sweet porridges...for spicy baby while making porridge dont add sweetness or fruit....just add crushed garlic & cumin...do not salt if your baby below 1 year... just pour some drops of ghee or coconut oil & serve warm.
When giving to babies, start with 1 tsp and then increase gradually to 2 or 2 1/2 tsp.
I hope you like my health mix powder.
THANKYOU.
