Ragi kara kozhukattai recipe

Ragi kara kozhukattai recipe with step by step pictures. Delicious, as well soft kozhukattai recipe with urad dal. A healthy breakfast recipe to start your day. This is the first time I am making kozhukattai with ragi. I have made dosa, adai and kanji. Have tasted other kezhvaragu dishes like ragi puttu, ragi sevai, but first time making kozhuakttai. When I was thinking to post some kozhukattai recipe without rice flour, as well as savory version, I thought I will try this easy pidi kozhukattai with ragi.

ragi-kozhukattai-recipe


I was in doubt while making and until I ate, if it would turn out soft or rubbery/ dry. But it turned out really soft and moist. Best part is it stayed soft even after cooled down. I made it for breakfast today and thought of posting too. I made peanut chutney to go with this, as I was not sure how Vj too would like this, but he loved it. With Vinayagar chathurthi around, you can try this rice flour and sweet free pidi kozhukattai. One day evening you can offer to Vinayakar at home and have as evening snack too.

    Urad dal flour will make it slightly vazhuk vazhuk. Adding crushed gives nice texture. 🙂

    Hi Raji,
    Very healthy recipe. Good innovation 🙂
    How you got the idea to use urad dal? We usually use only flour to make kozhukkatais..

    I tried this for breakfast and it came out well. My daughter who doesn't like ragi dosa relished the kozhukkattais with peanut chutney.. (sema combo 🙂 ) .. Thanks for such a healthy recipe and I am glad to have tried it.

    Can you label under your picture what sides are with it? Is it peanut chutney or coconut chutney in the bigger partition and in the smaller partition what is it? Tomato Chutney? Kuzhambu? Sambar?
