Ingredients

• • Four tablespoons of ragi flour.
  • Two and a half cups of water.
  • Around 5-6 tablespoons of jaggery powder (optional)
  • One-fourth teaspoon of cardamom, powdered.
  • Two tablespoons of dried fruit.

How to Prepare

  • If ragi is cooked properly, add jaggery and mix well.

  • Add cardamom powder and dried fruits and mix well.
  • Serve hot.
