Talbina is a porridge made from barley flour.
It's a healthy food which is also known as Prophetic food as it was liked and consumed by our beloved Prophet :)
There are many health benefits of consuming Talbina.
In this post, I will share its method of preparation and its benefits :)
Method of Preparation
One needs barley flour, some fresh dates, dry fruits, and sugar/honey to prepare Talbina.
Mix one cup of water with one cup milk and let it boil then add two tablespoons of dry barley powder and cook it on low flame for 5-10 minutes till it is cooked and becomes like porridge.
If using sugar as a sweetener then add at this stage, if using honey can be added later.
Then add de-seeded dates and dry fruits of your choice.
And it's ready to serve and eat :)
The cooking process is very simple and takes hardly 10-15 minutes.
Ready to use barley powder or Talbina mix is available in the market as well on online stores.
I received one from an Instagram store. It's good :)

1. It reduces depression.
2. It relieves stress.
3. It enhances mood.
4. Helps in weight management & weight loss.
