Ingredients
  • Ragi Flour – 2 cups
  • Rice flour – 1/2 cup idiyappam flour
  • Boiling water – 4 to 5 cups + or –
  • Oil – 2 tsp
  • Salt – as per taste
  • Sugar – as per taste and for garnishing
  • Grated coconut – for garnishing
Instructions
  1. Take the correct amount of flours. Dry roast the Ragi flour for 5 to 6 min.
  2. Add the rice flour, mix with Ragi flour and again roast for just 3 min. Switch off the stove. Allow to cool down. Add the salt and mix it.
  3. Add the boiling water little by little and keep on mixing the flours, until they become soft and pliable. Add the oil and mix.
  4. Take a handful portion of flour and fill the idiyappam mould or Sev press. ( I tried with idiyappam mould, but could not press it, so used the murukku sev press ).
  5. Press the mould on the idiyappam plates or idli plates. Steam cook them for 8 to 10 min.
  6. Once cooked, serve hot by sprinkling sugar and grated coconut.
Recipe Notes

Since the Ragi flour is bit coarse, I used the murukku sev press.
Addition of grated coconut is purely optional.
