- RED CHILLI CHUTNEY RECIPE
- Ingredients
My paati being diabetic, my mom always prepares special diabetic diet recipes for her dinner. Other than roti, she makes tiffin items with ragi.
Check out other diabetic friendly millet recipes
She makes sweet adai, savoury adai, idiyappam, puttu, kanji(porridge) both sweet and salted and these dosas. Those days, I was not so fond of those tiffin items.
My mom will remind me that I used to drink sweet kanji when I was a baby and used to be chubby then. During my teens I was so so lean and weak and she used to struggle a lot to make me eat nutritious food and I used to escape in all ways!
But after I started cooking, I buy ragi flour and make at least dosa with it once in a while. But now, my kid won't even touch it, my hubby also is a big enemy to healthy food items like ragi, oats!
So I make Instant ragi dosa only for myself. Its easy to make in morning times also we will feel full tummy to kick start the day. I simply eat with buttermilk and idli podi. I have given the best combo chutney how ever, goes well with this dosa. The ingredients given makes 5-6 dosas.

Notes
- For Ragi dosa, adding water or buttermilk is your choice.
- my mom always uses butter milk, atleast a little. If you have left over sour idly/dosa batter, you can add a ladle full of that to this batter.
- The above to prevent from dry spots in your dosa. Even adding enough water and cooking first in high flame or cooking it covered prevents dry spots.
- You can replace wheat flour with rice flour too. But wheat flour is recommended if you make for diabetic.
- For the chilly chutney, it's very important to balance the hotness, tanginess and salt to get the perfect taste. If it's too hot, add more tamarind or salt to tally the heat.

1. Take ragi, wheat flour, chopped onions, green chilli, torn curry leaves, cumin, salt in a bowl.
2. After that add half the water to make a thick paste. This is to avoid lumps as it is easy to mix this way than adding all water at once.
It is easy to make batter without lumps by doing so. If we add all water at once, there are chances of forming small lumps and it will take time to break it.
3. Now add curd or sour butter milk.
4. After that add remaining water to make thin batter.
5. Batter should be watery for easy cooking and porous texture of dosa.
6. Heat dosa pan, drizzle with oil and smear everywhere. After that, pour as we do for rava dosa, that is outer ring first.
7. Then fill it inside to make dosa. Tawa should be hot, so that it gets cooked as we pour. Otherwise there will be dry spots in dosa.
8. Drizzle some more oil and cook for a minute.
9. Flip and cook for 30 more seconds and take out.
Serve hot with your favorite chutney. Tangy, hot or simply coconut chutney or milagai podi!
