Racking our brains every single day what to do for breakfast, lunch, evening snack or even dinner for that matter..is one thing which is very irritating for all of us, unless we live in a joint family which is a very rare phenomenon these days ..:) where we can get lots of ideas from the other women of the house or worst come scenario even curse our stars together for not being able to think of something quickly...at least things done in a group feels very comforting at times...!!
Anyways, i was going through one of those days where i had to look after what my daughter was up to every single minute,plus decide what can be todays breakfast choice, especially that which can be easily consumed by my toddler as well...browsing through my pantry for what can be today option i came across ragi flour sitting out there for some time...!! well i just had an idea.. that changed my day...;)
Ragi dosa, doesn't take more than 10 mins and can be had with simple chutney or with yummy onion roast or anything of your choice...anyways since i have lack of time i went with onion roast.
ragi as shailu mentioned in her blog, has cooling properties for your body, gr8 nutrient for kids and the aged as well in fact good for people of all ages..;)
well getting on with the recipe which you will see for yourself is quite simple...!!
