RAGI MUDDE - Millet Ball

Hi everyone,

Today will take you through the best local food of south India (Karnataka) The Ragi Mudde

Ragi is a kind of millet. The Ragi is grinded to powder/Flour. Ragi Mudde(Ball) is made up of Boiling Ragi flour in water, as the flour gets cooked, the semi solid dough will be formed. Adding a little more flour will make it semi solid.
This is when the Balls are made.

Let me bring you the local restaurant R K Hotel in Vijayanagara Bangalore for their best preparation of Ragi Mudde and Non Vegetarian food.

Here are some pictures

The hotel interior has a seating for bunch of people and is always busy unless you are hear early 😊

Ragi Mudde is always served with a gravy. Preferred one is always a Chicken Gravy or the mutton.

The Ragi mudde is made into small pieces of balls and are dipped in the gravy. And the best part is how u have it.
You do not chew it in your mouth. You will swallow those small balls dipped in spicy gravy.

Here are some more pictures from the restaurant

The Hotel is called Military hotel because of the fast selling food item - Ragi Ball and Chicken Gravy.
The Military hotels were formed to serve Military in British rule in India and Ragi Ball was the main item, hence the name Military hotel.
