    Ragi Ribbon Murukku Recipe

    Ragi ribbon murukku recipe with step by step photos. These ragi ribbon pakoda is made with finger millet flour and is really crisp, crunchy and tastes just like the regular ribbon murukku. Make it for Diwali, Krishna Jayanthi or for your tea time snack.

    The only drawback which should not be considered as a draw back at all is the color of course. But as the color of the ragi flour itself is somewhat light brown in color, these murukku tend to darken further upon deep frying.

    I actually made these during last year for a magazine along with Thinai badam peda and Pirandai Thattai. I had posted both of them earlier and thought of posting this ragi ribbon murukku now for Diwali.

    Ragi Ribbon Murukku

    Points to note while making Ragi ribbon murukku:

    1. I did not add rice flour but increased the hot oil and it was totally crisp.

    2. You can also add softened unsalted butter if you want a softer and less crunchy ribbon pakoda.

    3. Make the murukku immediately after you prepare the dough. Dough made from millet flours turn sour quickly than the regular rice flour.

    4. Also millet flours dry out quickly, so always keep the dough covered with a damp cloth.

    5. Millet flour takes time to cook, so cook over an even medium-low flame

    6. As you cannot tell whether it has cooked completely or not by the color itself, go by the sizzling sound. Once it stops, it is time to take out.

    How to make Ragi Ribbon Murukku:
