In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of Ragi flour and 1.25 cups of water, stirring well until there are no lumps and the batter is smooth and slightly runny.
Add 0.5 teaspoon of salt to the batter and mix well.
Heat a non-stick skillet or dosa pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with a little coconut oil using a brush or a paper towel.
Once the pan is hot, pour a ladleful of batter onto the center of the pan. Immediately swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly into a thin, crepe-like layer.
Drizzle a few drops of coconut oil around the edges of the dosa.
Cook the dosa on medium heat for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to lift and turn golden brown.
Carefully flip the dosa using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until cooked through and crisp.
Remove the dosa from the pan and repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the pan with coconut oil as needed.
Serve hot with your choice of Whole30-compliant chutney or vegetable sides.
