    Ragi Vegetable Adai

    Ingredients:

    Ragi flour 1 cup
    Mixed veg. 1 cup ( bell pepper, onion, beans, cabbage, cauliflower, spring onion etc.,)
    Coriander leaves or pudina leaves
    green chillies 2 - 3 chop
    oil to make adai.
    Salt

    Method:

    Mix all the ingredients by adding little water.
    Make it like a thick chappati dough.
    Keep it as it is for 1/2 an hour.
    Make small balls and press them and make like small 'adai'
    You can make these 'adai' on a plastic sheet by pressing them.
    If you want you can apply oil on them.
    Then put this 'adai' on hot tawa and turn.
    Just put a drop of oil and remove from the tawa after done.
    Serve with pudina or coriander chutney.

    Note: If you are going to make this for children you can change the flour. You can use rice flour for them. Or otherwise you can use 'bajera flour'/ millet flour instead of ragi flour.
    You can add drumstick leaves or onion alone in this adai. If you add only drumstick leaves it will be so tasty.:drool
