## Notes

* Firstly, ensure you use fresh ragi flour to avoid a rancid taste.

* Additionally, adding your choice of vegetables makes the chilla more nutritious.

* Also, I like my chilla to be slightly tangy, so I have added curd.

* Finally, **Ragi Chilla Recipe** tastes great when served hot or packed in a lunchbox.
