Then I found out that surprisingly Ragi has a very high glycemic index even higher than rice. My 2 hr after meal blood test confirmed it too. So it may not be the best option for diabetics. I also came to know that Foxtail millet(Thinai) has a very low glycemic index(34)Gayathrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01995567131798850646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-19398420830329560102010-11-20T06:49:28.256-05:002010-11-20T06:49:28.256-05:00Hi Spandu, the idli batter should be frothy just l...Hi Spandu, the idli batter should be frothy just like you would prepare a regular idli batter and it should also ferment nicely...or else the idlis wont be soft and will be like a paste...you can try adding another tablespoon of urad dhal and grinding the batter if you are using a mixie for grinding....I hope this helps you...take care.Gita Jaishankarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09487678400890683498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-2785272982001022272010-11-20T01:14:45.365-05:002010-11-20T01:14:45.365-05:00i tried ragi idly..but its a total failure...idly ...i tried ragi idly..but its a total failure...idly dint came well...whole batter collapsed and after cooking it was like paste...<br />any suggestions????Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12167656385314661862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-80609084898901356172010-02-19T17:04:23.583-05:002010-02-19T17:04:23.583-05:00Ragi Idli is great for a change from regular idlis...Ragi Idli is great for a change from regular idlis ,I love the dark color :DYasmeenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11656826241218622482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-61623843665053602432010-02-19T13:42:02.042-05:002010-02-19T13:42:02.042-05:00such a healthy idlis..i will try it soon..such a healthy idlis..i will try it soon..Renuka Bedre - Raohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11709063137052189056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-90939697961594176292010-02-19T09:00:31.755-05:002010-02-19T09:00:31.755-05:00Have tried only dosa and adai,this sounds good too...Have tried only dosa and adai,this sounds good too!Rakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01031748298369592747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-90326683879685984092010-02-19T08:17:17.190-05:002010-02-19T08:17:17.190-05:00Quite healthy Gita!!I love the color too..Quite healthy Gita!!I love the color too..Shrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07984710776639774415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-75061590386551038032010-02-18T16:33:23.993-05:002010-02-18T16:33:23.993-05:00We eat raagi and idly but never raagi idly.very cl...We eat raagi and idly but never raagi idly.very clever.Recipeswaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05839714387643552105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-8001210617611639182010-02-18T09:15:10.633-05:002010-02-18T09:15:10.633-05:00Sounds healthy and delicious...Sounds healthy and delicious...Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00104732992849529060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-59575180210404773782010-02-18T06:07:39.370-05:002010-02-18T06:07:39.370-05:00healthy n yummy idly..so softhealthy n yummy idly..so softpriyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06926331556520159866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-14024428836171718902010-02-18T05:47:28.903-05:002010-02-18T05:47:28.903-05:00healty and gud lookhealty and gud lookBeenaShyleshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04844221747507814196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492846584706109579.post-62641674765114814492010-02-18T02:59:11.851-05:002010-02-18T02:59:11.851-05:00I've never seen idli made with millet flour.
