Ingredients
Ragi flour – 2 cups
Big onion – 1
Coconut gratings – 1/2 cup
Red chillies – 3 to 4
Jeeragam (Cumin) – 1 teaspoon
Ground Nut – 2 tablespoons
Curry Leaves – a handful
Mustard – 1 teaspoon
Urad dhal – 1 teaspoon
Asafoetida – a pinch
Oil for frying
Salt – 1 teaspoon or as per taste
Directions
- In a small mixie jar put the red chillies and grind it coarsely (like chilli flakes). To this add ground nuts and again grind it to a coarse powder.
- Put the ragi flour in a large bowl or plate and mix in salt, cumin (just crush it by hand and add), chopped onion, coconut gratings, chopped curry leaves, asafoetida powder and coarsely powdered ground nuts.
- In a tadka ladle, heat one teaspoon of oil and add mustard. When it pops up, add urad dhal and fry until golden brown. Add this seasoning to the flour mixture. Mix well.
- Pour hot water a little at a time, mix it with a spoon and make a soft dough (thicker than adai batter and softer than chapati dough).
- Take a banana leaf or a plastic sheet and put a small orange size dough and gently spread it to round shape with your fingers
- Heat a skillet and grease with oil. Place the adai on the skillet.
- Pour one teaspoon of oil around the edges. Cook over medium heat until the colour changes.
- Flip over and cook the other side.
- Serve plain or with any chutney.
- This dish is very nutritious and can be made even more so by adding a cup of grated carrots or any finely chopped greens to the dough.
How to make Ragi payasam?
Hi Akila,
If you want to make ragi payasam, first fry 1/2 cup ragi flour in a teaspoon of ghee. Add 2 to 3 cups of boiled milk and stir well. Then add two to three tablespoons of sugar and stir well. When it starts boiling well add a pinch of cardamom powder, fried cashews and raisins. If the consistency is too thick, then again you can add required boiled milk and make it to the right consistency. If it is thin, then allow to boil for some more time.
