Abstract

In the present investigation attempts have been made to develop nutrient rich instant adai mix by the addition standardized proportion of kodo millet and barnyard millet with other ingredients (blackgram dhal, whole green gram, bengal gram, redgram dhal and horsegram). They were made from different ratio viz., kodo millet flour, blackgram dhal, whole green gram, bengal gram, redgram dhal, horsegram, chilli powder and asafoetida (100:10:10:10:10:10:4:1) and barnyard millet flour, blackgram dhal, whole green gram, bengal gram, red gram dhal, horsegram, chilli powder and asafoetida (100:10:10:15:10:10:4:1). The proximate composition of millet blends instant adai mix contained higher protein, fibre and minerals such as calcium, phosphorus and iron. Sensory attributes of instant adai mixes were highly acceptable. It can be stored in Metallised Polypropylene with antioxidant for the period of 180 days. The cost of small millet based instant adai mix was worked out to be Rs.8.23 (T1 ) and Rs.7.78 (T2 ) respectively.
