Quick breakfast recipe suitable for Peptic Ulcers

( Banana Chapathi roll & Papaya Flattened Brown Rice )

Banana Chapathi Roll

Ingredients:
Chapathi ( சப்பாத்தி) - 2
Banana (  வாழைப்பழம்) - 1
Shredded Coconut  ( தேங்காய் துருவல்) - 4 tsp
Dates ( பேரிச்சம்பழம் ) -  2
Almonds ( பாதாம் பருப்பு ) -  4
Honey ( தேன்) - 1 tbsp ( optional )

An alternative to the regular banana, you may choose the bright attractive red ones. The pink flesh is sweeter than the regular banana. This banana is low in fat, low in sodium and a source of fiber. I like the aroma of this red banana. But overripe has a strong taste and is not recommended to eat and especially for diabetics.
But diabetics need not refrain from eating a banana but keep in mind about the number and frequency of intake.
Eating this fruit helps to create thicker stomach walls and greater production of stomach mucus. This creates a barrier between the stomach lining and the digestive acids, thus reducing ulcer.

Steps:

Slice the bananas. Slit the almonds and dates lengthwise.
Divide the above ingredients into two portions, one for each chapathi.
Chapathi can be freshly made or saved/left over from the previous meal.
On a Chapathi, spread the banana pieces, top it with almond and dates pieces and scatter 2 tsp of shredded coconut. Drip a tsp of honey and roll the chapati.

Repeat with the other half of the ingredients for the second chapathi.

A delicious, minerals and vitamins loaded wrap on the go.

My Notes:

I have noticed, nearly three decades ago, my University friend Beena' Mother prepare this dish regularly for her Father as he had a mild peptic ulcer.

Eating fresh Coconut has many health benefits. Don't worry about the cholesterol as the uncooked coconut has only good cholesterol.
Chewing one or two pieces of coconut a day cures mouth ulcers.

Recently was mentioning this recipe to a friend whose Father in law has ulcer.

So this simple dish actually gives an idea or choice of food for the people in need rather than a detailed recipe.

Not only for ulcer, but it is also an excellent choice to start a day for the young and old.

 A healthy breakfast fixed quickly provided you are ready to prepare the chapathi or plan early and save a few from dinner.

This breakfast is better than 2 slices of bread with jam, in many ways.

Another dish made with puffed rice is also very easy to make and very soothing for the stomach.
