What to know about iD Fresh Ragi Millet Idly & Dosa Batter

Mostly water and rice, with 6% ragi

A 500 g pack of chilled idly and dosa batter made from RO-purified water (55%), rice (29%), urad dal, ragi (6%), iodised salt and fenugreek. It is bought by people who want a ready-to-cook South Indian staple without grinding and soaking at home.

Per 100 g the batter has 145 kcal, 4.41 g protein, 2.54 g fibre, no sugar and 124.91 mg sodium. One 50 g idly gives 72.5 kcal, 2.21 g protein, 1.27 g fibre and about 62 mg sodium. The pack says it makes 10 idlies or 7 dosas.

The name puts ragi first, but rice is the larger grain at 29% against ragi at 6%. The claims of no soda and no preservatives match the list, which has no additives at all. CleanPlate scores it DA1.

Why iD Fresh Ragi Millet Idly & Dosa Batter scores DA1

Nutrition is a D because the batter is mostly water and rice, with 4.41 g protein and 2.54 g fibre per 100 g. Ingredients are an A for a short list with no additives, and risk is a 1 on 124.91 mg sodium and no sugar.

Protein

Energy
145 kcal

01 Nutrition density: why D

Protein is 4.41 g per 100 g and fibre 2.54 g, so one 50 g idly gives 2.21 g protein and 1.27 g fibre. The largest protein contributor is urad dal, and the protein density is low because water is more than half the batter.

No vitamins or minerals are declared, so the grade rests on protein and fibre alone. Calories are modest at 145 kcal per 100 g, but that is mostly starch from rice.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why A

The list is six plain items: water, rice, urad dal, ragi, iodised salt and fenugreek. There are no additives, no preservative and no sweetener, so nothing costs ingredient points.

Percentages are declared for water, rice and ragi, and no label promise is hollow. No label-integrity points are lost.

Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

03 Load risk: why 1

Sodium is the only measurable part of the risk number, at 124.91 mg per 100 g. Sugar, saturated fat and trans fat are all declared at 0 g.

One idly has about 62 mg sodium and 72.5 kcal, so nothing here comes near the high lines.

Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does iD Fresh Ragi Millet Idly & Dosa Batter live up to its claims?

No soda and no preservatives both hold, since the list has neither. The ragi in the name is real but small, at 6% of the batter, behind rice at 29%.

  • Product name

    “Ragi Millet Idly & Dosa Batter”

    Partly true

    Ragi is real but small at 6% of the batter. Rice is 29% and water 55%.

  • On the pack

    “The goodness of ragi, made delicious!”

    Be careful

    Ragi is listed, but at 6% it is a minor share. One idly has 2.21 g protein and 1.27 g fibre.

  • On the pack

    “No soda”

    Holds

    No raising agent is listed. The ingredients are water, rice, urad dal, ragi, iodised salt and fenugreek.

  • On the pack

    “No preservatives”

    Holds

    No preservative or other additive appears in the list. The pack is sold chilled.

  • On the pack

    “Rice, urad dal, ragi, fenugreek, iodised salt and nothing else”

    Holds

    The list matches, with purified water as the only other item.

What's in iD Fresh Ragi Millet Idly & Dosa Batter?

Water, rice and urad dal lead a six-item list, with ragi at 6%, iodised salt and fenugreek. Nothing on it is an additive of concern.

The ingredient list, read for you

RO-purified water leads at 55%, then rice at 29%, so the batter is mostly water and rice. Urad dal comes next with no percentage declared, then ragi at 6%, iodised salt and fenugreek. The rice and dal give the batter its body, and the salt and fenugreek are seasoning.

Ingredients to watch

  • Low protein and fibreConcern

    4.41 g protein and 2.54 g fibre per 100 g, which is 2.21 g and 1.27 g in one idly. This is what holds the nutrition grade down.

  • Ragi shareWorth watching

    Ragi is 6%, while rice is 29%. The name suggests more millet than the list shows.

  • Made in a wheat facilityWorth watching

    The pack says it is made in the same facility that processes wheat, which matters for anyone avoiding wheat.

  • Short, additive-free listFine

    Six ingredients, with no preservative, soda, sweetener or colour.

  • Sodium and sugarFine

    124.91 mg sodium per 100 g, about 62 mg per idly, and 0 g sugar.

  • Fat is printed as 0 g, with no breakdown beyond that.
