Ingredients;-
Ragi
Ghee
Jaggery
Milk
Method:-
You can soak it for 12 hours, then drain and put it in a cloth. Keep it moist so that it gets sprouts. This will take another 12 hours. Then dry roast it or dry in the shade in a hot place. Then powder it finely, sieve well.
If you get fine quality powder, that is best.
Take 2 or 3 spoons of powder, add water and make a smooth, watery paste. Then keep over slow flame and keep on stirring. This will start to cook and solidify. The color will change, you will know. A nice aroma will come. Take off from fire. Add a little ghee, jaggary taste. If you are feeding him semi solids you can add milk to it. Feed when warm to the baby. You can add a little boliled and mashed potato, carrot and other veggies the same way or with a little salt instead of jaggery
Can I use Raagi flour instead of soaking and grinding into powder?
ReplyDeletecan I use raagi flour ???? pls reply
ReplyDeleteYes you can surely use raagi flour if you think it is pure and clean or just make sure you seave the powder before you make it for the baby.
ReplyDeletehi swapna nice blog.
ReplyDeleteam baby is 4 months old and am starting him on solids.his doctor asked us to start with vegetable and then fruit puree's and asked us to start even ragi ,but some of my friends were saying ragi cannot be digested by small babies and we should start later on after 8 months and not now.

ReplyDeletethanks i started ragi for my son at 6 months. yes ragi is lil hard to digest but you can make it lil dilute and then feed it as it is very gud for them. i live in the USA too i use the raagi flour directly as i dint find raagi in the desi stores if you can find them then its gr8 to use them.
