How To Prepare Ragi Dosa:

• Wash and soak rice and urad dal for 2-3 hours.  Then grind them well until smooth.
• To this ground batter add 1 cup of ragi flour, salt and 1/2 cup water and grind once again.  No fermentation of this batter is required and it can be used immediately.  The consistency of the batter should be like normal dosa batter.
• Heat a non-stick tawa and grease it with oil. (If you are using a cast iron tawa, cut an onion into half and rub it all over the tawa -- The dosa will not stick to the tawa).
• Take a ladle of batter, pour it in the centre and spread it around in a circular motion using the back of the ladle like we normally do for dosa.  DO NOT spread it too thin like a paper dosa.
• Add 1 tsp of oil around and on the dosa .
• When one side of the dosa is cooked, flip it over to the other side and cook till done.
• Fold it in half and remove onto a plate.
• Serve it hot with coconut chutney.
