Raagi Roti(Indian Flat Bread) with Awards and Tag:-)

Ragi Roti(Kezhvaragu/Finger Millet/Madua/Elusine Indica) - Indian Flat Bread is very healthy breakfast or tiffin. Its a very famous breakfast/tiffin in Karnataka, India. In my village we grow Ragi grains my granny sends grains to us. We clean, dry and make flour.

The whole grain in nutritrional terms is very rich in proteins, providing highest levels of calcium and high levels of dietary fibre. It helps in control of blood glucose levels in diabetics.

In Karnataka its also consumed in many forms like Ragi balls (Ragi Mudde) dipped in sambar, Malt and Koozhu. Ragi Seri can be fed for infants above 6 months since its high in calcium. Whenever we are preparing the flour at home have to be very careful since it contains small muddy particles or stones. When you buy Ragi flour from supermarkets its better to seive 2 to 3 times and then use it.

Here is a simple and easy recipe for Ragi Roti which is high in nutrition and healthy food.

Ingredients

Ragi flour - 4 cups

Onion - 2 nos chopped

Fresh grated coconut - 1 cup
Green chilli - 2nos chopped (As per your taste)

Curry leaves - few chopped

Oil

Hot water

Salt

Preparation Method

In a wide bowl, put all the ingredients and mix it like chapathi dough in hot water.

Take small balls and spread it thinly in round shape on a plastic sheet or directly in the kadai or pan.

Put 1 tspn oil and cook both sides.

Continue same process for left over dough.

Ragi Roti is ready to eat...This is good to eat as it is or with these Pickle/Jaggery/Coconut chutney.

This recipe is going for WFC Breakfast by EC and State Specials by Shanthi.
