Instant Ragi Dosa - Gluten-Free Breakfast

Ragi Dosa, another instant and healthy dosa recipe. This recipe is gluten-free, and i tried this when there was little leftover besan crepe batter, to that i added the rest of the ingredients, it came out good. So, the next time, i experimented with the measurements a little to get a good textured ragi dosa. Unlike wheat based ragi dosa, this besan based ragi dosa holds good shape and can be made crisp and thin too.

Ragi breakfast keeps you full for a longer time and prevents from snacking in-between.It has a much higher amount of dietary fiber compared to white rice and other grains. It is also a low fat cereal and most of the fats are in the unsaturated form. This makes it the best choice in grains for people trying to lose weight. Though ragi is a carbohydrate rich food , it is all complex carbohydrates, which takes more time to be break down, so it releases glucose slowly into the blood stream and maintains your sugar level.
