Uthappam is one of the most popular breakfast dish. There are so many variations by using different combinations of rice and dal or with rava. In this recipe I have used foxtail millet along with grated potatoes other ingredients. The batter is neither fermented nor Eno or curd is used. Try this veggie loaded breakfast recipe with millets.
In addition to bringing a pop of colour to the dish, beets are highly nutritious and packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and plant compounds, many of which have medicinal properties. They are low in calories and contain a bit of almost all of the vitamins and minerals. Some studies show that beetroot juice could significantly lower levels of both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Beets contain pigments called betalains, which possess a number of anti-inflammatory properties.
Adding beet puree to the millet flour to make beet parathas is an easy way to include this veggie in our diet.

Paniyaram are ball shaped dumplings made with fermented batter. They are known by different names paddu, gundu pongala, guliyappa etc. In this recipe I have used whole jowar grains and fenugreek/vendhayam seeds as main ingredients. Fenugreek seeds are rich in vitamins such as thiamin, folic acid, riboflavin, niacin, vitamins A, B6, and C, and are a rich storehouse of many minerals such as copper, potassium, calcium, iron, selenium, zinc, manganese, and magnesium. Fenugreek leaves are a rich source of vitamin K as well.
Both Jowar and fenugreek seeds are rich in fibre which helps for proper digestion, weight loss and controlling sugar.
Dal Dhokli a traditional dish of Guajarati cuisine generally prepared with dals (lentils) and wheat flour as base ingredients. It has soft textured dhokli submerged in semi thick dal like lentil gravy and has mild sweet and spicy taste of aromatic spices and crunchy peanuts. Apart from being easy to prepare, healthy and stomach filling, this dal dhokli can be served as a one dish meal. I have used ragi flour for making dhoklis for this recipe and it turned out so yummy.
Enjoy Dal Dhokli with the goodness of ragi.
