Ragi or finger millet is a very nutritious and healthy food substance. Now a days most of the carbohydrates are substitued with ragi flour or powder.

Idiappam is a traditional food of kerala, usually prepared for breakfast. It is made using roasted rice flour. Here in this recepie I have added Ragi flour along with rice flour in 1:1 proportion. Both the flours are mixed together and made into cotton soft dough by mixing in hot water. And then it is poured into the moulds using Sevanayi (Idiyappam Maker)and steamed till it gets cooked.

Lets checkout the detailed recepie below 👇

INGREDIENTS:

  • Roasted Rice flour: 1 n 1/2 cups
  • Ragi Flour: 1 n 1/2 cups
  • Salt: 1/4 tsp

  • Once you start mixing you will know if more water is required or not. If required add some more water little by little.
