RAGI IDLI,DOSA RECIPE- RAGI RECIPES

(updated with stepwise pictures)

Hi friends,
Sorry for the sudden disappearance from blogging.As i had an unexpected trip to Tirunelveli,i couldn't post any.I missed all ur posts too:(.Even today i am in salem and leaving to bangalore on tuesday.I will be regular from Wednesday i guess.:).I'll update this post with stepwise pictures after going there..
Ragi idli,dosa recipe using fermentation method was in my try list for long time.When i came across this recipe in Kamala's corner,i bookmarked it and tried immediately.Actually i wanted to make ragi idli without rice but as i tried for the first time,i tried the recipe as it is.Ragi@Kezhvaragu(in Tamil) has lots of health benefits.I usually make Instant Ragi dosa.But this recipe is surely a welcome change as i can make soft idlis & crispy dosas as well.Its a healthy breakfast/Dinner recipe for diabetic & people who look for weight loss.Do try this soft idli recipe.U'll love it for sure.
