Firstly this is a recipe that when use in conjunction with an Agni building diet will nourish the body and give you a solid foundation to start your day.

Although on the other hand if your Agni (Digestive Fire) is not kindled this can be very hard and slow to digest and exacerbate the heaviness (Kaphic) qualities of the bread. You can add more Onion but you are better off attending to your digestion first.

This is a recipe I have been using for a long time and I am very surprised it has not gone mainstream, as its cheap and leaves you feeling really nourished and grounded.

The qualities of this meal are Kaphic and Rajistic. In other words – A grounding to get you started for the day and fuel the fire your belly while also adding weight thus eluding the body of hunger for a decent time.

I generally use more Garlic than this recipe has and more oil as I am predominantly Vata (Air/space)
