Ragi Mudde

🔥 Prep

• Measure out 1 cup of ragi flour.
• Measure out 2 cups of water.
• Measure out 1 tsp of salt.

🔥 Cook

• 1. Bring the 2 cups water to a boil over medium-high heat in a deep saucepan.
• 2. Add the 1 tsp salt to the boiling water and stir.
• 3. Reduce heat to medium and gradually sprinkle the 1 cup ragi flour while stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
• 4. Continue stirring vigorously for 5-7 minutes until the mixture thickens and pulls away from the sides of the pan, forming a smooth dough.
• 5. Reduce heat to low and cook for another 2 minutes to ensure the flour is fully cooked.
• 6. Remove the pan from heat and let the dough cool slightly for 1 minute (just enough to handle).
• 7. Wet your hands with a little water, then take a portion of the dough and roll it into a smooth ball about the size of a golf ball (approximately 2-3 inches diameter).
• 8. Place the formed ragi mudde on a plate; repeat until all dough is used.

🔥 Serve

• Serve the ragi mudde warm with a side of sambar or any South Indian lentil stew.
• Drizzle a spoonful of ghee over each ball for added richness.
• Pair with coconut chutney or a spicy tomato chutney if desired.
