    Ingredients for Ragi vada 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.

    Ginger

    Fresh ginger has a slightly peppery and sweet flavour, as well as a pungent and spicy aroma. Fresh ginger, like garlic, softens with cooking. It's a common flavouring in Asian dishes. Salad dressings, baked goods, soups, curries, meats, and desserts like
    gingerbread and gingersnaps are all flavoured with ground ginger.
