Ragi dosa recipe | millet recipes – Finger millet dosa – South Indian dosai made using Whole ragi grains, little millet and urad dal.
Ragi is also called kezhvaragu in Tamil. I always make instant ragi dosa at home. When amma was here when we were talking casually she told us we could soak whole ragi seeds and make ragi dosa too. So tried the mom’s ragi dosa recipe and it was a super hit. Amma told me the recipe used raw rice and I replaced it with samai rice. You can add varagu too. Try including ragi in your diet as it has a lot of health benefits. If you are looking for a healthy and super tasty crispy dosa, then try out this ragi dosa recipe. We had this ragi dosai with thakkali thokku and a glass of pudina chaas.

Hi Jeyashri, a very healthy recipe. I want to try this & I have ragi flour at stock. Could u tell me the measurement to replace it in this recipe?
Hi,
Sorry for he delayed reply. IF using ragi flour ,soak only the rest of the ingredients and grind it. Once done mix the ragi flour to this and allow it to ferment. You can make dosas out of this once it is fermented. You can add 1 cup of flour
I have ragi flour, how I can make dosa using that…
