ragi mudde recipe | ragi ball recipe | finger millet ball | ragi sangati with step by step photo and video. perhaps, one of the healthiest and clean food which is full of multi nutrients and hence it is typically consumed by hardworking farmers. ragi mudde, is typically consumed with thin rasam known as bassaru, or uppesru which is typically prepared with bunch of fresh leafy vegetables and from the decanted water, which remains after steaming lentils.

honestly, i am not a big fan of ragi ball recipe and i prepare this recipe only because of my husband. even he is not a big fan of it, but he prefers to eat this once in a while, especially to lower the body heat. according to him, the ragi ball as such does not have any taste and it tastes good only with a good saaru (rasam) or palya (curry). i totally agree to this point, and the side compliment plays a significant role when served finger millet ball as meal. i typically, prepare normal rasam with some garlic seasoning as a side dish, but any coconut based sambar recipe should go well with this recipe.

furthermore, some important tips and suggestion for a perfect ragi mudde recipe. firstly, always use a heavy bottomed vessel to prepare and steam the millet balls. otherwise, the finger millet may stick to the bottom. in addition, always use a strong spatula or wooden stick to beat the ragi flour. even wooden based rolling pin can be used to beat the flour. further, i heavily recommend to use ghee instead of oil to beat the ragi flour as it would help with the digestion.
