As I already mentioned many times, at my home, the Sunday brunches , though they are time consuming, they are my most favourite meal to prepare and favourite meal time for my family too.

And for supper time I either prefer any of these Salads or such ‘Mix & Make’ dosa recipes. These simple instant recipes are my any day favourite ones to make, specifically to satisfy my kids hunger pangs on Saturday & Sunday evenings / supper.

Chutney suggestions:

As per me, the most suitable chutneys / condiments along with this dosa:

• Peanut Chutney / Palli Pachchadi
• Instant Coconut Chutney / Kobbari Pachchadi
• Roasted Tomato Chutney / Tomato Pachchadi

Possible Alterations you can make in, ‘Instant Ragi Flour Dosa / Instant Finger Millet Dosa’:

Instead of whole jeera / cumin seeds you might add same quantity of jeera / cumin powder.

Making a fine paste of ginger-green chillies-cumin can be added too.

Using brown rice flour: White rice flour can be replaced with Brown Rice flour.

Other Additional Ingredients to add: Adding, ¼ to ½ cup of rava / semolina while making the batter,  is an option for the dosa to turn crispy. But, note that semolina is not Gluten free.

Adding 1 tablespoon of finely chopped curry leaves, gives a unique aroma.

Adding Curd: While making the dosa batter, using ½ cup of curd / yogurt along with water, is a great option too.

Health Benefits of ‘Instant Ragi Flour Dosa / Easy Finger Millet Dosa’:

Ragi Flour, is a whole grain that is gluten-free, rich in fibre that helps with weight loss and diabetes. It’s packed with iron, calcium, good carbs, amino acids and Vitamin D. Its easily digestible by infants and kids as well. It gives instant energy which lasts up to few hours. In India, ragi / finger millets are purposefully included in daily diet, during summers.

Rice Flour,  has fibre content and is the first best option for Gluten Free Flour making it safe for people with Celiac disease / Gluten allergy. But, brown rice flour is far better than white rice flour. 

To conclude, this recipe is entirely Gluten free, Dairy Free, Rich in fibre & Iron content. It is absolutely suitable for Diabetic friendly diet and Weight Loss Food / Low Carb Recipes.

Making the Batter:

Making the Dosa:

Tips:

• Adjust the salt & spice as per your taste.
• While making the batter, add water little by little, only as much is required. 
• Take care that there are no lumps in the batter, it has to be smooth enough to get best dosa.
• Garlic is NOT SUITABLE for this recipe.
• In case you do not have an appropriate dosa pan,  use a wide non-stick frying pan.
• Be careful while turning the dosa to the other side, there are high chances for the dosa to tear in between.
• Storage: You can make the dosa mix (adding the flours, salt, spices) and store it in an air tight container in a cool dry place for about 1 week to 10 days. Just add water and grated veggies just before making dosa(s).
• Making the batter well before is not advisable.

Result:

• As shown the below pic, I served this dosa with Beetroot Pachadi / Chutney and Mint Leaves Spice Powder / Pudina Karam Podi, which actually gave the additional flavourful taste to the dosa.
• As the flours we added have a quite dull taste, these Ragi Dosa are almost tasteless if eaten without the spicy chutneys.
• If your kids are not ready to eat the chutneys, you might serve with a simple veggie raita.
