Ragi Idli: A Healthy Twist on a Classic

Ragi Idli is a nutritious variation of the traditional South Indian idli, made with ragi (finger millet) flour instead of rice. Rich in calcium, fiber, and iron, this healthy version retains the soft, spongy texture of regular idlis while offering a more wholesome alternative. The batter is made by fermenting a mixture of ragi flour, urad dal, and other ingredients, similar to traditional idli preparation. Steamed to perfection, Ragi Idli is typically served with coconut chutney and sambar. It’s a great option for a healthy breakfast or snack, providing long-lasting energy and numerous health benefits.
