Diets consumed by majority of the population in India are cereal based. Cereals provide 80 per cent of the total calories and a small per cent of protein, but the cereals fail to provide some of the important nutrients like essential amino acids, as they are noted neither for the quality nor for the quantity of protein which they contain. Thus, protein fortification of foods is of current interest because of nutritional awareness, government guidelines and changing demographics.
