Frequently Asked Questions
Is ragi dosa healthier than regular dosa?
Yes. Ragi carries far more calcium than rice and is a useful source of iron (IFCT 2017), and it is gluten-free. On glycemic index it sits in the medium band rather than the low one, and grinding it fine for dosa batter raises it further, so eat it the way it is traditionally served — with sambar, chutney or curd, which slow the whole meal down.
Can I use sprouted ragi flour?
Absolutely! Sprouted ragi flour is even more nutritious and easier to digest, especially for kids and elderly.
Why is my ragi dosa breaking?
The batter might be too thick. Add more water. Also, use a non-stick tawa and spread quickly.
Can babies eat ragi dosa?
Yes, ragi dosa is excellent for babies 10+ months. Use less spice and no salt for babies.
