Ragi Rava Upma

My latest favourite is this ragi rava,i picked a packet of this healthy rava before a month for the sake of giving a trial, but finally i got hooked to them and this time while we went to the Indian grocery,i came back home with two packets of this ragi rava. Actually this rava is completely prepared with the healthy and nutritious finger millet aka ragi.

You can make any food with this ragi rava, i tried instant idlis and this upma till now,both these dishes turned out fabulous and my next trial is to make some savoury cake or muffins with this grain,let me see how its turns out.Healthy dish to kick start your day, i used gingelly oil for preparing this upma and the addition of gingelly oil gives a wonderful flavour to this beautiful healthy dish.Sending this muffins to my own event CWS-Ragi or Quinoa guest hosted by my dear sister Divya.
