While Ragi Sangati has always been something that's regular at home, I was first introduced to Jonna Sangati by Athamma. She not only makes awesome Jonna Rotis, but uses rice to make these sangati, which is again very healthy, even though it does include Rice. Most times the amount of rice is less when compared to the regular rice consumption. So overall it's good for health.
This also becomes an ideal food for Diabetics as consuming Jowar flour in any form is good. I am yet to learn making Jonna Roti, however making this Sangati was pretty easy as it's almost the same way as Ragi Sangati.
The Jonna Sangati is paired with either Chicken or Mutton Gravy and mostly made on Sunday lunch to enjoy a hearty meal.

Traditional recipes are always nice and healthy.
This reminds me of an african dish called pounded yam..that is also cooked, mashes and made into balls..eaten with chicken curry.

I am getting lumps. How can I avoid creating lumps.
Srivalli says
When you add the flour, you have to quickly mix it with a rolling pin to make sure it gets mixed well with the rice. If you check the video you will understand. Even if after that the lumps get formed, you can add little water and break it with the back of the ladle to mix well again.
