Kezhvaraghu adai (Easy ragi adai)

Kezhvaraghu adai (Easy ragi adai) - Preparation time 10 to 15 mins
Yesterday evening I felt very hungry. I don't want to eat any oily stuff so thought of trying some easy, simple to make and healthy recipe. Mom gave me ragi flour for making dosai or kanch which i stored in my refrigerator now i want to try new recipe using it.

I tried making in small quantity. When i tasted after making it was so tasty to me so finished eating the 2 to 3 adai by myself left 2 for my husband to taste. It will be very tasty when consumed hot and tasty when cold. You can try this and provide you feedback or input.

I actually flattened the ragi adai flour directly over the hot tawa which might not be possible for some so you can oil a silver foil or plantain leaf to flatten and put in the hot tawa. Remove the sheet or leaf from the flattened adai.

Mix well all the above ingredients and sprinkle  water to make dough .
The dough should not be tight for puri or chappathi. Let it be slight loose so a small ball can be made using the dough.

Heat a tawa (i use iron tawa for making dosa/adai so that dish will be much more tasty than non stick) and coat with little oil.
In a bowl take water. Dip your hand in the water (to avoid the dough sticking to your hand) and then make small ball from the dough.
When tawa is hot keep the dough ball in the middle and slowly flatten the ball and make a circle.

Make small ball so the flattening process will be easy. Spread little oil around the ragi adai. After few mins turn the adai and cook. The color will become dark when it is completely cooked.
