Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. So, why not start the day on a healthy note. Make these Varagu Arisi Parappu Adai for breakfast which is healthy and nutritious too! These are savory crepes made with millet rice and lentils.
I usually prefer having some neer moru ( spiced buttermilk ) after having these Varagu Arisi Parappu Adai. Serve it hot with Jaggery and mint coconut chutney.
