Millets swap easily into breakfasts your family already enjoys. These five ideas use grains and flours from our store and familiar methods — no special equipment needed.
1. Korra upma
Temper mustard, chana dal, curry leaves and chillies, add vegetables, then cook rinsed korra with about 2½ times water until soft and fluffy.
2. Ragi java
Whisk 2 tbsp ragi flour into a cup of water, cook while stirring until thick, then finish with buttermilk and salt, or with milk and jaggery for a sweet version.
3. Jowar rava upma
Pulse whole jowar into a coarse rava, dry-roast it, and cook like a regular upma with groundnuts and vegetables.
4. Millet idli
Replace part of the idli rice in your usual batter with soaked korra or samalu. Grind with minumulu and ferment overnight as usual.
5. Sprouted pesalu chaat
Sprout pesalu overnight, then toss with onion, tomato, grated carrot, coconut, lemon and a pinch of salt.
