Does this sound like you?
Going gluten-free in an Indian home is hard for these four reasons.
This plan solves all four: the hot-water roti method, a hidden-gluten checklist, one base meal with two breads, and restaurant and wedding scripts.
How it works
Three simple steps. That's it.
1
🎯Pick your level
A short quiz sets your plan: about 1,200, 1,500 (the baseline) or 1,800 calories a day.
2
🛒Set up a safe kitchen, then shop
A 10-point kitchen checklist, then the ready list: about ₹920 a week for one person, ₹3,150 for a family of four.
3
✅Follow the daily menu
Breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner, all naturally gluten-free, with timings.

Soft Rolled Jowar Phulkas (Ukad Method)
See the recipe
You need
- 1 cup fine Jowar (Sorghum) flour, freshly milled
- 1 cup filtered water
- 1/4 tsp rock salt
- 1/2 tsp cold-pressed sesame oil
- 2 tbsp dry jowar flour for rolling dusting
Method
- Bring 1 cup of water to a rolling boil with rock salt and 1/2 tsp oil in a deep saucepan.
- Turn heat to low; add 1 cup jowar flour all at once. Stir briskly with a wooden spoon for 30 seconds.
- Cover tightly with a lid; turn off heat and let steam undisturbed for 10 minutes.
- Transfer warm dough to a large plate. Wet hands with cool water and knead firmly for 3 minutes until smooth.
- Divide into lemon-sized balls. Dust board with dry flour and roll gently with light pressure into 6-inch discs.
- Place on a smoking hot tawa. Brush top with 1 tbsp water. When water dries, flip and cook second side for 1 minute.
- Transfer onto open flame or press with a clean cotton napkin until the roti balloons into a phulka!
👨👩👧 Whole-family version: Serve hot with a touch of butter or oil; family members won't believe these puffed, tender phulkas are 100% wheat-free!
Crispy Instant Ragi Dosa
See the recipe
You need
- 1/2 cup Ragi (Finger Millet) flour
- 2 tbsp fine Rice flour (for crispness)
- 1/4 cup fresh low-fat curd (dahi)
- 1 green chilli & 1/2 inch ginger, finely minced
- 1/2 tsp cumin seeds & 1 tbsp chopped coriander
- 1 tsp cold-pressed oil for tawa brushing
Method
- In a mixing bowl, whisk ragi flour, rice flour, curd, and 1 cup water into a thin, watery batter (like rava dosa batter).
- Add minced green chillies, ginger, cumin seeds, fresh coriander, and rock salt. Rest batter for 5 minutes.
- Heat a dedicated non-stick or cast-iron tawa on high heat until sizzling hot. Lightly grease with 1/2 tsp oil.
- Stir the batter from the bottom; pour a ladleful starting from the outside rim toward the center.
- The batter will form natural lace-like perforations. Drizzle 1/4 tsp oil around the edges.
- Cook on medium-high flame for 3 minutes until the base turns deeply crisp and edges lift spontaneously.
- Fold gently and serve hot with fresh coconut-coriander chutney and warm vegetable sambar.
👨👩👧 Whole-family version: Kids adore the dramatic lace-like crispiness of this dosa; serve with a sprinkle of cheese or a side of mild potato masala.
Kuttu (Buckwheat) Vegetable Cheela
See the recipe
You need
- 1/2 cup Kuttu (Buckwheat) flour

- 1 green chilli & 1/2 inch ginger, finely grated
- 1/4 tsp roasted cumin powder & rock salt (sendha namak)
- 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh coriander
- 1 tsp cold-pressed oil for tawa
Method

- Gradually add 1/2 cup warm water, whisking into a smooth, lump-free pouring batter.
- Fold in fresh coriander leaves. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes so buckwheat starches hydrate.
- Heat a dedicated non-stick or seasoned cast-iron griddle on medium heat. Brush lightly with oil.
- Pour a ladle of batter and spread gently into a 5-inch circle.
- Cook for 2.5 minutes until edges crisp and bottom is deep golden. Flip and cook second side for 1 minute.

🎁 A caring, practical gift for someone who has just been told to avoid gluten.
Your questions, answered
Do I have coeliac disease or just a sensitivity?
Only a doctor can tell you. Please get tested before going gluten-free, because stopping gluten first can affect the test results.
Will the rotis really be soft?
Yes. The book teaches the hot-water (ukad) method step by step, plus fixes for cracking and hard rotis.
Is hing gluten-free?
Many commercial hing powders contain wheat flour. The book shows how to find safe ones and what else to check on labels.
Can my family keep eating wheat?
Yes. The book's 'single base, dual bread' system keeps one dal and sabzi for everyone, with separate breads and clear rules to avoid mix-ups.
How will I get the plan?
It's a PDF. After payment you get a download link by email. Read it on any device and print the fridge sheets and shopping lists.
Is there a printed copy?
The printed hard copy is out of stock right now. The PDF is available instantly.

If you suspect coeliac disease, speak to your doctor and get tested before removing gluten. If you have a diagnosed condition, are pregnant, or take medicines, consult your doctor or dietitian before changing your diet. Individual results vary. Images are illustrative.
