SAVOURY RAGI KOLUKKATAI



Ingredients:

2 cups ragi flour
1 cup rice flour
1 tbs of green chillie chopped fine
1 tsp ginger chopped fine
2 tbs onion chopped fine.
1 sprig curry leaves chopped
½ tsp mustard seeds
½ tsp urad dal
1 tbs oil
Salt to taste

Method:
Tie the two flours in a cloth and steam them in a idli cooker,
for about 15 minutes.
Remove and put them in a bowl to cool.

Now heat the oil in a pan, add in the mustard seeds,
And urad dal. Let them splutter.
Now add in the onions, ginger, green chillies, and curry leaves.
Saute a little, and pour it into the flour.
Mix every thing nicely.

Dissolve enough salt in little water.
Add the salted water little by little, just enough to bind the flour.
Take a small fistful of the flour and shape it with your fingers.
Now steam the shaped kolukkatais for about 10 minutes.
Remove and serve with coconut chutney, or you can eat it as it is.

NOTE: You cannot make ragi kolukkatai with ragi flour alone.
