Raagi Rotti is made of Raagi ( one of the main cereal ) and can be eaten for break fast , lunch or dinner.

Ingredients :

Raagi powder - one cup
Onion - 2 medium sized
Green chillies - 2
Ginger - a small piece
Coconut- 2 Table spoons ( grated).

Curry leaves - 4 to 6
Coriander leaves -2 to 3 sticks
Water - Required.

Method :

Take a bowl and put Raagi powder and put 1/2 cup of boiled water on the top and close it for 5 minutes. Add coconut and onions and remaining things . Add salt and mix thoroughly.
Add water if required.
Keep a tava and put 1 tea spoon of oil and spread that . Take a ball of raagi mixture and just spread it with wet hand . Put 1 spoon of oil on the top and cover with lid and cook for 2 minutes. Turn the rotti and cook again. Let it cook on medium flame. Repeat the same to do remaining dough. Serve Raagi rotti with ghee or butter and coconut chutney.
Note : Add only required water so that you can spread it well on the tava. You can use two tavas to prepare the rottis. ( Spread a spoon of oil on the tava and then wet your hand and spread the dough and then keep it on the fire). Or you can spread the dough straight on the tava which is already on the fire. ( Keep the flame very low while spreading the dough ).

4 to 6 Raagi rottis can be made.
