Mini Raagi Adai/Mini Fingermillet Savory Pancake


For the final of Blogging Marathon #31 under the theme I made  savory adai/pancake with lentils and finger millet(raagi).
My mom makes this kind of adai for breakfast or evening snack with the leftover regular adai batter made for dinner or breakfast.
She mixes either wheat flour or raagi flour with the adai batter and makes mini adai or dosa.This adai doesn't need any accompaniment as it tastes good as such but I like to have it both coconut chutney and tomato chutney.
To make it more healthy you can add grated carrot,beetroot,coconut and chopped coriander or spinach to it.Here goes the recipe for healthy adai...............................

Rava Kozhukattai/Rava Pidi kozhukattai

For the alphabet R,I decided to make something with rava aka semolina.But I have blogged most of the  rava recipes  in Tamil cuisine. When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention. The method of making this kozhukattai is same as  upma kozhukattai ,whereas rava/semolina is used instead of rice.Both sweet and savory versions can be made with semolina.As we had lot of sweet dishes in the previous week I made the savory version.Soon share the sweet version.This is a great option for evening snack and I served with coconut chutney.Lets move on to the  recipe............                                                                                          ...

Cinnamon Pull Apart Loaf /Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread

We are starting the first week of 65th edition of blogging marathon and for this week I chose pull apart breads. My kids love homemade breads and buns a lot.Especially if its cinnamon flavor its a real treat for them.So made two small loaves  of pull apart bread ,the loaf has come out so well and the house was filled with the aroma of cinnamon. The bread tasted awesome and I had half of the loaf as soon as I finished taking the picture.Rest of the loaves were gobbled by my kids.I made the bread dough with 4.5 cups and  divided the dough to make another savory roll.The given measurement makes a 8 ½ x 4 ½ loaf,off to the recipe......                                                                                           ...
