What it is

Manna was started in Chennai in 2000 by I.S.A.K. Nazar, and its first product was a health mix based on sathumaavu, the Tamil multigrain porridge mix. This is samai maavu, little millet milled fine.

It is pale and fine, and of the Manna millet flours it makes the softest dosai. Mixed thin it spreads easily on the tawa; kneaded with hot water it makes a tender roti. Choosing between millet flours? Little millet for soft dosai; Manna Kodo Millet Flour for firmer roti and adai; Manna Foxtail Millet Flour for a nuttier taste.

Tip: Add a spoon of curd to the batter and rest it 20 minutes. The dosai crisp better at the edges.
