Ragi Kaara Adai/Finger Millet Pancake


For the day 3 of blogging marathon #49 under the theme brunch,I wanted to share a healthy and authentic,village style ragi/finger millet adai.We mostly make dosa with the finger millet and rarely adai.This recipe I noted long time in a T.V cookery show by Mrs.Revathy Shanmugam and she used moringa leaves/drumstick leaves.Unfortunately I don't get those leaves,used chopped curry leaves and coriander leaves.The adai is so flavorful with the addition of shallots and its a filling and healthy option for brunch or even snack. I paired it with a spicy chutney and here I flatten the adai directly on tawa and also used a parchment paper to flatten it.Off to the recipe.................................

  • Take all the ingredients except water given for the dough in a bowl and mix it well.Slowly add the hot water and knead it to a soft dough.
  •  Divide the dough into two equal balls,heat a griddle and once it becomes hot keep a ball on the griddle.Wet the hands with water and flatten it to slightly thick adai or flatten it on a parchment paper or banana leaf and transferred to the griddle.
  • Drizzle a tsp of oil and cook it for 2 minutes in a medium flame.Flip t to the other side and cook it for another couple of minutes.Add another tsp of oil and cook it for 30 seconds.Transfer it to a plate.



  • Serve it  hot with tomato chutney or spicy chutney.







  • Use hot water to knead the dough,that makes it more softer.
  • This is the traditional way of making so I didn't use any other veggies such as grated carrot or beet root.
  • Along with the ragi flour,1/2 cup of wheat or rice flour can also be used. .
