Dry Ingredients

- 1 tsp Mustard Seeds rai
- 1 tsp Lentils black, split black lentils
- 1 tsp Chickpea split chickpeas
- 1/4 tsp Asafoetida hing, optional
Wet Ingredients

Vegetables
- 1 tbsp Chili Pepper finely chopped, green
- 1/2 medium Onion finely chopped

Instructions
Prepare the Batter
- Mix ragi flour, buttermilk, and salt in a bowl. The batter should be slightly thicker than pancake batter but pourable.
Sauté the Spices and Vegetables
- Heat oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds, urad dal, chana dal, and asafoetida (if using). Once the seeds splutter, add finely chopped onions and green chilies. Sauté for a minute.
Add Remaining Vegetables and Ragi Batter
- Add the grated carrots, and stir for another minute. Reduce the heat to low. Pour in the ragi batter, stirring continuously to prevent sticking.
Cook the Ragi Mixture
- Continue stirring for 10-15 minutes until the mixture thickens and pulls away from the sides of the pan. Stir for another 2 minutes.
Set and Serve
- Lightly grease a baking sheet or plate. Pour the cooked mixture onto the sheet and spread evenly. Let it cool completely before cutting into bars. Garnish with fresh grated coconut (optional).
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Ragi Vegetable Bars
- For a smoother batter, blend the ragi flour briefly before mixing with buttermilk.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers, spinach, or peas to customize the flavor and nutrition.
- If the batter seems too thick, add a little more buttermilk; if it’s too thin, add a spoonful of ragi flour.
- Store leftover bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
