Ingredients of Ayurvedic ubtan:
– 3 tbsp Moong daal or split yellow lentils
– 2 tbsp of oats
– 3 tbsp of green gram daal
– 2 tbsp of Masoor daal (red lentils)
– Fennel seeds (saunf)
Method of preparing Ayurvedic ubtan:
Step 1: Heat a pan and add all the above-mentioned ingredients to it. Stir the mixture on a low flame and now, wait for the ingredients to turn fragrant. You will hear the spices crackle and the lentils pop. Once it happens, take the mixture off the heat and keep it aside for grinding.
Step 2: Once the mixture cools down, put it in a mixer and grind it to a fine powder.
Step 3: In the ubtan mixture, add a spoon of sandalwood powder. Empty it out in an airtight container and store it.
Whenever you want to use it, mix one tbsp of the natural ubtan mixture, with two tbsps of milk, and two tbsps of curd. Mix it well until the consistency is smooth to apply.
