Finger millet also known as Ragi/Nachni is one of the staple food in South India. It's power packed with lots of nutrients. Ragi contains fiber which aids in weight-loss and good for diabetic patients. This recipe is quick and easy and goes well with any spicy curry or spicy coconut chutney. Have it when it's hot.

We prepare rice shevai normally. This is the first time I tried preparing shevai with Ragi flour. Its healthy and about the taste, yum it was.



 Step by step method :

Dry roast ragi flour until the raw smell goes off. It took around 5-7 mins. (Make sure you wont brown it). Mix rice flour and salt. Switch off the flame. Allow it to cool a bit.


Now add water lil by lil to the flour mixture and mix well until it starts coming together. Now close with a lid and allow it to rest for 15 mins.


After 15 mins, add 1 tsp of oil and bring it together to form a soft dough.

Grease the shevai maker, and fill it with dough. (I used chakli maker with shevai mould)

Also grease the idli plates or idiyappam plates. Now using shevai maker make shevais directly on the plates.

Steam them in a steamer for 10 minutes.



Remove from the steam and serve hot with spicy coconut chutney.

Chicken Uruval

Chicken Uruval or Urval is a famous and delicious Mangalorean dish. It is very simple to prepare, yet very rich in taste. It is a spicy, tangy and very flavorful dish mostly served as an appetizer. This dish has very less ingredients. The main taste of this dish is from the masala paste prepared using red chillies, cashewnuts and few whole spices. Paste should be fried properly in butter. I just marinated the chicken and cooked with the paste. But in restaurants they deep fry the chicken pieces.
