If you’re the type who hits snooze twice, scrolls through your phone, and then grabs a coffee hoping it’ll power you till lunch—you need a better morning routine. Something quick, filling, and actually good for you. That’s where ragi chilla comes in.

But First… What Even Is Ragi Chilla?
Think of ragi chilla as India’s version of a healthy pancake. It’s made from ragi (finger millet) and oats—two of the most underrated ingredients when it comes to real nutrition. It’s soft inside, crispy outside, and tastes amazing with chutney or curd.
Even better? Truroots by Vrinda uses sprouted ragi, which means more absorbable nutrients and a happier gut.

Step 6: Serve Hot
Serve with mint chutney, curd, or whatever sauce you love. Dunk, bite, repeat.
