When I had Dafina it was made with rice. The recipe was very similar to this one by jamie geller

I had it with wheat berries once. It was more watery. Each component served separately and then the broth.

A basic recipe which we use all the time is:
1/2 c wheat (we call it blé)
1 c water
1/2 tspn salt
heaped 1/8 tsp black pepper
heaped 1/8 tsp turmeric
2 tbsp oil
(some people add a chopped small green chili pepper, deseeded)
You add everything to a plastic cooking bag and tie it up. It has to be tied about an inch and a half to two inches from the top to allow for expansion. Make small pin pricks near the top (underneath from) where you tied to allow steam to escape and put it in when you cook the dafina. Older people used to put it in a closed glass jar.
The wheat will absorb the liquid and the grains will be separate (like rice). We also make a similar side using rice to go with the dafina.
We make this weekly. Cedar brand is good for the wheat.
