Sadhguru & Radhe Cook A Ragi Dosa Together | Millet Recipe

never destroyed those are like this before really got stuck those are the disaster cut it cut it cut it it's a very adventurous so I'm trying to make it little less adventurous for the victims not mine those are they but it'll still taste good go and drown Dosa from the hotel we can do yeah [Music] not bad a quick learner this dough has been specially prepared by me who's gonna eat this inevitably one was already enslaved I'll have to give it to her only because nobody is saying yes well I pack it in this and give you be a slave for your life ragi is the most female friendly cereal you can consume so Millet is a solution for our health for soil health and for ensuring there are no famines in the world that nobody should die of hunger let's make it happen [Music] now it's got um this is uh the year of the millet well we've been using millets right from our childhood but now it's important that we bring it to the entire population the whole world in some way because this is very important in terms of large-scale human health which has become a serious problem and the nutritional deficiencies due to single serial consumption and a massive diabetic pandemic happening all over the world particularly in India the most important aspect is millet cultivation is a far better thing to do for the soil regeneration than rice and wheat which has become the most stable grain to be consumed all over the world Millet will make a lot of difference it is not a very thirsty crop unlike Paddy and wheat and both of them are uh essentially Delta crops they should have remained that way Parish was only grown in Delta areas where there was naturally a certain amount of standing water and people made use of it and marshlands and stuff like that but today we are irrigating the lands heavily to do this this not only consumes water this also destroys the soil in many different ways Millet consumption both for human health and soil health will make a a fantastic difference my daughter radhe living in Chennai only on rice whatever you eat idli rice Dosa rice Pongal rice rice rice this Chennai so I'm trying to cultivate her to consume some Millet and of course she's a a very adventurous cook I mean to say for those who eat it's a bit adventurous so I'm trying to make it little less adventurous for the victims and uh this is a ragi dosa ragi have very important cereal of uh subcontinent and particularly you know when we were growing up in Karnataka it was very much a part of daily consumption everywhere but somehow it got bad breaths that it is uh a poor man's food and it doesn't give you social prestige but it gives you health well-being and nourishment I must tell all of you the ladies of the world I must tell you ragi is the most female friendly cereal you can consume this Millet is fantastic for women it has the highest amount of calcium in among all the grains and also very high levels of iron which is an issue one is uh across the world there is a such a level of anemia all over the world particularly for the female population there is also a problem of porosity of Bones being high at certain stages in a woman's life and ragi can make a tremendous difference for both so most of the cooking I still believe unless you're eating only from food apps I still believe home cooking largely still by women and they must pick up these cereals and make sure everybody eats this not that it's not good for men it's good for everybody but I'm saying there are special advantages for a woman because certain lack of nourishment in certain areas of nourishment has been an issue because of single serial consumption and not everybody is able to maintain other aspects of nutritional aspects very well for all of them ragi can make a tremendous difference today in India the government of India has coined this word which is a wonderful thing picked up from the tradition but bringing back into usage it's called SRI Annam and here at the Isha Yoga Center at least five days in a week everybody is consuming millets and we're also encouraging the local farmers and the former producer organizations to produce milk and the consumption is slowly going up everywhere around us also but this needs to happen across the country for a healthy population and across the world for a healthy Humanity I hope this Dosa normally first Dosa is a disaster cut it now it takes time to cook it Cooks a little more at least in this form a little more than the rice but it does a lot more it's a very slow release cereal that is you there will be no sugar spikes because of you you're eating a millet it releases its glucose part of it very very slowly so particularly those who suffer from diabetes or whose life is threatened by diabetes ragi and the other millets also does a fantastic job not bad a quick learner and we used to travel a lot in Karnataka we see a lot of ragi mud day on the road but you don't find that so much anymore and also I it used to be very soft and easy to eat but now when you get ragi Modi in most places it's like you can't eat it so is there a question of cultivation or is it just a question of cooking no cooking people have lost practice now they made some cookers like a rice cooker they got a ragi mudde cooker that you can cook in that that's what they're saying I have not seen one but uh making of they need some effort and really kind of needing it when it's cooking you must knead it properly otherwise it won't go very well but today you see I will make a ragi roti which is very tasty and easy to do compared to the mud day is unique in the way it is eaten only in Karnataka people generally know how to eat in Tamil Nadu people mix it like rice and eat it but in Karnataka we make it into small balls and dip it in the curry and just swallow it like that with a little bit of chewing so it's a unique way of eating that kind of eating is very good for those who work in the Farms because is a slow release millet so if you eat it in that way that you just dip it in either green greens or some other Curry that you have made uh the thing is because you have not been chewing it the release becomes even slower so if you eat one ragi mud day like brunch a big raging a day for lunch all day you're plowing working on the field eight hours of work it will sustain without you feeling hungry and weak because the release is so slow so this is something that they've arrived at knowing that if you chew it you'll die just faster so they make it in such a way that it's made into small balls and swallowed like that so people who have to work in the open and there is no access to food whenever you feel like it these are all the things that they discovered by their their own observation [Music] [Applause] well this is a ragi roti you need a little bit of banana leaf or also you could be do it on what they call as the butter paper but the important thing is you take ragi flower just steam it a little bit like how you would do even an idly stand you c
