Ragi Twisters! They for sure turned out crispy, tasty so much so that we are already out of stock in 3 days. This is when I was rationing it 🙂
We have always loved Ragi Chips, but what you get in markets are too spicy and offcourse not really healthy. So when lockdown happened and we were limited to only healthy eating, since I won’t make anything else , Ragi Twisters came out as a good try. These aren’t pure Ragi as have used some whole wheat flour as well for some gluten, but I would surely try a gluten free version too. Infact as I was writing this piece, I was also snacking on the last few pieces of Ragi Twisters. They are so crisp and flavoursome that now , I am going to try the next version very soon.
I also teamed it up with a fresh cottage cheese dip . Baking makes it dry and as it is Ragi or Millets are dry so overall a good dip goes really well in giving you a complete feeling for a good snacking. A healthy protein rich dip with this scrumptious Ragi Twisters satiates your evening hunger. Trust me you can’t stop on one 🙂
So what are you waiting, lets go crack the recipe and enjoy our Ragi Twisters.
Ragi Twisters
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Ragi Flour
- 1/4 cup Whole Wheat
- 1 tbsp Chat Masala
- 1/4 tsp Red Chilli Powder
- 1 tbsp Ginger Paste
- 1 tbsp Garlic Paste
- 1 tbsp Dry Mango Powder
- 1 tbsp Jaggery Powder
- 4 tbsp Ghee
- 1 tbsp Cumin Powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 3/4 cup Water
Instructions
Mix ragi and wheat flour and then add all the seasonings and give a good mix.
Now add the ghee and with fingers mix it well.
Take water in small quantities and start kneading the dough till you have nice dough together. Let this sit for 20 mins covered.
Preheat the oven at 180 degrees and spray some oil on the baking tray.
Now take a small dough ball and roll into a thin sheet, with knife cut into strips.
You can transfer these strips as it is on the baking tray or just twist them a bit and then arrange them on the baking tray.
Now with a brush smear some melted ghee the twisters and bake it for 10 mins at 180 degrees and then turn them around and bake for another 10 mins.
Once they cool down they would be nice and crispy to be served with a good dip.
