Varagu Idli/Kodo Millet Idli

Share

You cannot find a dish that is more representative of Indian cuisine than the idli. It is a type of savory rice cake that is eaten primarily for breakfast, but also makes a great snack or meal to eat in between meals. This varagu idli made from kodo millet is another great variation on the idli, giving it a little bit of a different flavor than your standard rice based idli. Although they are different, they both taste fantastic.

Health Benefits

Varagu millet is a fantastic substitute for more traditional grains like rice or wheat due to its high nutrient content. It has quite a few health benefits that people will want in their diet. Varagu is easy to digest and has a high concentration of lecithin, a compound that plays a significant role in strengthening the nervous system. It also reduces cancer risks thanks to being rich in phytate, a vital photo chemical.
