Ragi Poori (Fingermillet poori)

Poori is a favorite breakfast in many homes, especially on Sundays. It's my family's favorite too. As I keep exploring on how to increase the health factor in my cooking, I stumbled upon this idea of making ragi pooris. Having tried a few times now, I can confidently say that it tastes much better than regular wheat pooris (Sorry, no maida based bhature for me!).
Ragi (fingermillet) is rich in calcium and iron. It's highly beneficial for children and women. I incorporate ragi in the form of idlis, dosas, porridge, kanji and now pooris too.
