Whole Wheat Bread Without Yeast

My Recipe for today is Whole Wheat Bread without yeast / Pain sans levure  !  When I ordered my groceries this time, bread was not available at the store.  So, I thought of baking bread with the ingredients I had at home.  This is the first time ever I am trying baking a small loaf of bread and I did not have a loaf pan either. So, I have used a square container which measures 4 cups. If you have a loaf pan, please use that, but the measurements i have given below will not be enough to make the size of a store bought loaf and the baked loaf will be upto 3/4th of the loaf pan.  You will need the following ingredients that will be easily available at home.

In US, it comes on Dec 26th, 2014. To make the ellai maavu , you will need Raw Rice - 1 cup Jaggery grated - 1/2 cup To prepare the rice flour, first soak the rice in water for 2 to 3 hours. Then drain the water and spread it on a paper towel or white cloth and let it dry for 20 minutes. Now, the when the rice is still wet, grind it in a mixie , into a powder. Sieve it and collect the coarse powder and grind it again and seive it. Repeat this until very less coarse powder is left.                                     In a pan, put the jaggery and add 2 tbsp of water and heat it until the jaggery dissolves completely.
