Ragi Mudde

🇮🇳 Indian

Grandmother wisdom in a bowl: ragi mudde — the millet dish that powered generations before breakfast cereal existed. About 20 minutes from fridge to table.

Prep 5 min Cook 15 min Serves 2 Easy

Ingredients

  • Salt1/2 tsp
  • Finger Millet (Ragi)2 cups

Optional extras

  • Fresh Cilantroto finish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring the water to a rolling boil and sprinkle in the flour a fistful at a time, stirring hard to kill every lump.

  2. 2

    Keep working the mixture over the heat until it thickens and turns glossy — mudde fights back, hold the spoon firmly.

  3. 3

    Finish with the flavourings; the texture should hold a thumb-dent.

  4. 4

    Serve hot with ghee, or chill and drink if the name says kanji or raab.

Chef's tip

Keep the flour fine and the stirring hard — lumps are the only failure mode.
