Nowadays Moringa leaves are considered as super food but In India particularly in Tamilnadu these leaves are traditionally used to make various dishes. They are rich in Iron, calcium, potassium and dietary fibre. When combined with ragi which is another super rich millet, the health benefits manifolds. In this recipe I have added sattu or roasted gram flour for protein which makes this dish a complete meal.

- 2.5 Cups Sprouted Ragi Flour
- 2.5 Cups Sprouted Ragi Flour

Directions:
- Grind coconut, green chillies and ginger to a coarse paste without adding water.
- In a wide bowl add all the dry ingredients and mix well for 2 to 3 minutes. The onions and mooring leaves will leave water. So mix thoroughly.
- Add hot water little at a time and make a soft dough. Rest it for 10 minutes.
- Take a banana leaf or a butter paper and grease it well. Take a tennis ball size dough and spread it to 1/2 inch thick disc.
- Transfer it to a hot tawa and cover it with a lid. Cook it on medium heat for a minute. Flip and cook both the sides well with oil.
- Repeat the process for the rest of the dough. Serve with some chutney.
