Start your morning with a steaming cup of chai and a handful of Chef Richa’s ghee‑jaggery atta biscuits, and you’re already on your way to a brighter, more hydrated complexion.
The secret sauce? A quarter cup of softened ghee, a third of a cup of raw jaggery powder, and a cup of whole wheat flour, lightly dusted with cardamom for that fragrant hint of spice.
Cream the ghee and jaggery until the mixture swirls into a light, airy batter. Fold in the flour, a pinch of baking powder and cardamom, then gently stir in a splash of milk to bind the dough. Avoid over‑kneading – a light touch keeps the biscuits tender.
Shape the dough into small, flat discs, place them on a lined tray, and slide them into a preheated oven at 180°C for 15‑18 minutes. The biscuits will puff up and turn golden‑brown, releasing a sweet, buttery aroma that’ll make your kitchen feel like a spa.
Ghee is rich in conjugated linoleic acid, which helps repair skin barriers, while jaggery supplies antioxidants that fight free radicals. The whole‑wheat flour gives you a gentle glucose boost, keeping your skin supple without the crash that sugary snacks bring.
Grab a jar of organic ghee from your local market, replace refined sugar with raw jaggery, and treat yourself to these biscuits every morning – they’ll keep you energized, your skin glowing, and your cravings in check.
