Pre-Roasted Durum Wheat Semolina for Quick Halwa, Upma and Rava Idli

Shankar Roasted Rava - 1kg is a pre-roasted sooji (semolina) made from durum wheat — a convenient, time-saving staple for South Asian households across the UK. Shankar is a well-regarded brand in the British Indian grocery market, and this roasted rava skips the dry-roasting step so you can go straight to cooking your halwa, upma or rava idli.

Why Choose Shankar Roasted Rava?

Roasting semolina in a dry pan is an essential step in many Indian recipes — it removes raw flour taste and develops a warm, nutty aroma. Shankar does this for you, so your halwa is ready faster and your upma has that authentic toasted flavour without the extra effort. Ideal for busy weekday mornings or quick festive sweets.

How to Use Shankar Roasted Rava

  • Sooji Halwa — skip the roasting step; add directly to ghee, then pour in sugar syrup for a quick, aromatic dessert
  • Upma — temper with mustard seeds, curry leaves and vegetables for a fast South Indian breakfast
  • Rava Idli — mix with yoghurt and leavening for soft, spongy idlis in less time
  • Sheera / Kesari — sweet semolina pudding with saffron, ghee and dry fruits
  • Rava Dosa — thin, crispy dosas with a pre-toasted flavour

Roasted vs Unroasted Rava — Which Do You Need?

Use roasted rava (this product) when you want to save time and get straight to cooking — the nutty flavour is already developed. Use unroasted rava when you prefer to control the roasting yourself for a more customised depth of flavour.
