Ragi Porridge

Ingredients

• 4 tbsp ragi flour/nachani

• 1 cup cold water

• 2 tbsp jaggery

• 1 tsp ginger

• 1/4 cup fresh grated coconut / ½ cup coconut milk / 2 tbsps desiccated coconut

Method

Mix the ragi and water till there are no lumps and cook for about 5 minutes on a medium flame till the ragi is cooked. Stir briskly all the while because ragi flour tends to form lumps. Add jaggery and ginger and turn off the flame. Top with coconut milk/ coconut and serve.

Variations

Replace ragi with cracked wheat.

Replace ginger with cinnamon and cardamom.

Replace coconut milk with soy, nut or rice milk.
