Namak Para also known as Nimki is a crunchy savoury snack item, generally seasoned with cumin seeds or ajwain/omam. This is a tea time snack. I have used jowar flour along with powdered semolina/sooji/rawa.
This crunchy pakoda is usually made using rice flour and besan. I have used jowar flour and it was as crunchy as rice pakoda. This goes well with tea or as a side dish for rice varieties.
Upma Kozhukattai/ Dumpling is an age old dish slightly different from regular upma prepared with broken rice and some spices. I have replaced rice with Millet grits.
Paniyarams are famous Chettinad delicacies which are prepared in both sweet and salt versions. Karupatti is used as a sweetener. I have used Palm sugar for this recipe.
Momos are usually made with maida. But I have replaced it with ragi and they came out beautiful like butterflies! The millet momos is a healthy way to indulge!
