Ragi(Finger millet) Halwa

Ragi (Finger millet) is a valuable cereal as it contains amino acid methionine. Ragi is also wheat free, made of whole grain flour and rich in calcium, iron and fiber.

Today I made dessert using Ragi flour for my kid.

I hope all of you will try this delicious and healthy dessert.
