Ragi Boondi

Who doesn't know Boondi in India. It is a favourite of many either as a sweet or savory. This is my version of making it with added ragi flour instead of rice flour. It tastes the same and as it's deep fried there is no much difference in the colour too.

Ingredient

1 cup

Besan

2 tbsp

Ragi flour

as required

Oil for frying

to taste

Salt

1/2 tsp

Chilli powder

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Mix besan, ragi flour, chilli powder, and salt in a medium size bowl, Prepare batter by gradually adding water as required until medium thick (like dosa batter). Make sure to add water little by little while mixing, so that there are no lumps in the batter. The batter when poured with a spoon should fall in a single line without breaking.

* Step 2

Add a tbsp of warm oil or ghee to the batter and mix well. Let the batter rest aside for 15 minutes.

* Step 3

Heat oil on medium heat for deep frying. Test the heat of the oil by dropping a drop of batter in it. The Boondi should come up fast then it is ready.

* Step 4

Mix the batter once again very well. You need a Boondi ladle or perforated spoon to prepare this. Place a Boondi ladle over the pan with hot oil and pour 1-2 tablespoons of batter in it. Tap the ladle so that the Boondi falls in the oil.
