    Ragi Adai Recipe (Kelvaragi Adai Reicpe)

    Everyone likes to a be healthy and eat good nutritious food..But finding those recipes are really hard. So I am giving you a healthy but tasty adai recipe which is prepared from ragi/finger millet. This recipe is good for diabetics too, so you can make this for your loved one who is suffering from diabetics.

    You can serve this with any spicy chutney you want. But the best combo is my Chilli & Garlic Chutney. But you can combo this with anything. And if you are diet you can enjoy this almost everyday.

    About Ragi Adai Recipe (Finger Millet Adai Recipe)

    Adai dosai is a South Indian breakfast dish. Due to the higher proportion of lentils than rice, it is a hotter, more protein-rich variation of the traditional dosa. The adai dosai doesn't need to be fermented, unlike the traditional dosa made of rice batter. It is served with chutney.

    Ragi, a millet that resembles mustard seeds in appearance, is incredibly nutrient-dense. It is easily ground into flour, which can then be used to make many Indian dishes like ragi idli, ragi roti, and ragi sheera. Ragi is full of fibre, low in gluten, and high in protein.

    Ragi works as a great source of fibre when it comes to people trying for weight loss. It helps in controlling Diabetes in the body while ensuring that the person is healthy and strong. Not only this, Ragi prevents obesity, provides energy, improves digestion and averts chronic diseases.

    Ingredients for Ragi Adai Dosa Recipe 

    Ragi Flour / Finger Millet Flour:

    Ragi, also known as finger millet, is a nutritious cereal crop. However, despite being aware of its nutritional benefits, some people are unable to consume it on a regular basis due to its bitter taste.

    Onion:

    Onions are considered a basic ingredient or the foundation of Indian cooking and are used to make any gravy, curry, or bhuna dish. The flavour and aroma of onion transforms any ordinary dish into a mouthwatering and delectable one.

    Mustard Seeds :

    They are used as a seasoning rather than a base flavour in many Indian dishes, and they really perk up a lentil or rice dish when fried in a little oil with curry leaves . As a result, mustard seeds are excellent for adding flavour without adding fat to your diet.

    Green Chilli  :

    The green chillies in cooked or raw form give a fiery hot flavour. To reduce the fiery hot flavour the seeds and inner membranes could be removed which is effective at reducing the heat of the pod.

    How to Make Ragi Adai Recipe (Kelvaragu Adai Recipe)

    • Heat oil in a kadai. Add mustard, curry leaves , green chilli, onions, salt and fry till light golden.
    • Pour in water and curd and bring it to a boil.
    • Add in ragi flour slowly while mixing constantly to avoid lumps. Mix well so that it gets incorporated and comes together.
    • Transfer this to a bowl and allow it to cool down.
    • Now take a small ball out of this and spread it over an oiled plastic sheet.This will prevent it from sticking.
    • Heat a tawa and put this Adai carefully over it and cook for 1 min on one side.
    • Flip over and cook on other side too.
    • Transfer to a hot case and serve with any hot chutney.

      why this is so difficult task aarthi?? why dont we skip the step of doing the boiling water and then add ragi.. Instead why cant we add just water and ragi and spread thickly over the tawa?? Will that taste good or not??

      @sita...Adding ragi flour to water first cooks it completely, so you won't get the raw flavour of that in the adai. you are just crisping up the adai in the tawa...

      I have a bag of millet flour in my cupboard and this will be a great use for it! It is labelled as bajri flour; is this the same thing as ragi flour? I just love healthy recipes,thanks 🙂
