RagiDosa_Featured2
Finger Millet also known as Ragi or Manduwa or Maddua is a gluten free cereal which is very widely consumed in Uttrakhand where I live now. Other than Uttrakhand it is a popular millet used in South Indian Cuisine. It is a rich source of amino acid methionine. 

In Kumaoni Cuisine Maddua plays a very important role for it is used in variety of dishes. It is also believed to keep you warm in thick cold. So I  was tempted to try this super cereal and got its flour from the local market. I debuted my adventure with Ragi by making this Instant Ragi Dosa. I saw Malar Muthu’s post one fine day and could not resist trying it. It was quick and required no fermentation. Luckily I had Sambar and Coconut Chutney to accompany this. The dosa came out crisp and so delicious. Even my kiddo loved them to the core.

Directions:

1. In a bowl add urad dal or split black gram. Add water and let it get soaked for atleast an hour.
