Ragi Dosa...

Finger millet or ragi is so well-known for its health benefits. Full of proteins and being a great source of minerals makes it perfect to start your day with an energy-packed breakfast. Try it in any form you like - say vermicelli, kanji, kool or dosa or else

Do you use millets in your diet??? If no then I guess you should try a few. Nowadays all the supermarkets are having a lot of  varieties of millets piled up. If not all, atleast we can pick up a few and try to include them in our diet. Here, try this super simple and healthy ragi dosa. A very quick and easy way to include a little healthy stuff in your diet. My kids love this so I make sure they have it atleast once in a week

My kids hate gothuma/wheat flour dosai. So if  I am on the lookout for some kind of dosa other than the reguar kind, also something which is easy to pull together without much effort then I go for this. No need to ferment so I find it easy to include it in our breakfast

This is what u'll need....

Here is the stir....

• Measure in 2 cups of ragi flour into a wide bowl

• If you want you can sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds as soon as you spread the batter

• Once cooked spoon in the filling and spread it on half the dosa

Note:

• Instead of using rice flour and urad dal separate, you can use 1+1/4 cup of dosa batter if you have 
• Filling is absolutely optional
