Notes

Tips for Ragi Koozh Recipe

  1. Ensure the ragi flour is mixed well with water (Step:3), without any lumps, before adding to the pan.
    2. Use raw rice / pacha arisi only. Also, grind it to a semi-coarse powder, don't make it fine as the rice particles should be seen in the Ragi Koozh Recipe.
    3. Water quantity varies on the type of ragi flour used, so adjust it accordingly. The water quantity I used was perfect for me.
    4. Always use a heavy bottomed pan, stir continuously and do the whole cooking in low flame as the ragi flour sticks to the bottom.
    5. Check whether the rice is cooked till soft and then add the ragi flour water.
    6. Cook the Keppai Koozh till it turns glossy (7 to 8 minutes) else it smells raw.
    7. Adjust the shallots, green chilli, ginger and mango quantity as preferred for your tastebuds.
    8. Always cool the Aadi Koozh Recipe and then add the buttermilk.
    9. Traditionally, ragi flour is soaked overnight (fermented) and then cooked. If making instantly, you can use sour buttermilk.
    10. This koozh thickens very soon, but in temples they serve it watery only so adjust with hot water everytime.
