Foods prepared from the ragi millet is not something that we would prefer in our everyday breakfasts. But Onion rava dosa would be in many of our favorite lists, why not combine them and make a healthy and yummy dosa?
Ragi Rava Dosa
Ingredients (serves 2-3
persons)
Ragi flour – 1 cup
Sooji rava – ½ cup
Maida – 1 tablespoon
Pepper – 10 (whole or broken)
Jeera – 2 teaspoon (whole or broken)
Jeera – 2 teaspoon (whole or broken)
Chopped Green chillies – 2 to 3
(optional)
Ginger (grated) – out of 1 inch long
Coriander leaves (chopped) - few
Curry leaves (finely chopped
or whole) - few
Curd slightly with sour – 1 tablespoon
Onions (chopped) – as per taste
Salt - to taste
Salt - to taste
Preparation
In a reasonably big bowl add the ragi flour,
sooji rava, maida and mix them without adding water.
Now add with this
mixture pepper & jeera (whole or broken as per taste), chopped green
chillies, grated ginger, chopped coriander leaves,
finely chopped or few whole curry leaves and salt.
Now add water to make the mixture to dosa consistency and keep aside for 2 hours.
After 2
hours add the slightly sour curd and required amount of
water to make it to the rava dosa consistency (pouring consistency and not spreading
consistency).
Method
In a dosa pan (if possible curved dosa pan is
preferable) heat and pour some oil.
Spread the oil to the entire space of
the pan (so that the dosa may not get stuck while taking back out of the pan)
and spread the finely chopped onion over the pan as per requirement and taste.
Now pour the dosa batter over the onions and close with lid for few minutes.
Now turn the dosa and
roast the other side also.
Adjust the heat of the stove, because making dosa in low heat is not so good and will take long time to get
ready.
Side dish preferred
Coconut
chutney
Health Benefits
Ragi, the healthy millet, is good source of calcium and iron.
Tips
My method for making this
type of dosas, to reduce time consumption; I use two dosa pans side by side.
In the first pan, which is on big
burner, I pour dosa batter and at the time of turning and roasting, I use second
dosa pan, which is on small burner.
Since the roasted rava dosas are good in
taste, we will not get bored and lose temper before finishing all dosas.
