INGREDIENTS
millet flour ( ragi/ kelvaragu or whatever you've) 1 cup ( if ragi is used, the colour may be light red of the flour, while other flours may be white- but ragi has more calcium and iron, good for health)
rice flour 1/2 cup
milk 1 1/2 cups
water 1 cup
jaggery syrup 1/2-3/4 cup strained OR you can add sugar to taste
fresh coconut grated 3 tbsp
nuts and raisins to decorate
salt wee bit
water to knead the dough
cardamom pdr. 1/2 tsp
METHOD
in a bowl, mix the flours with salt well, then add little water to knead a soft dough.
roll out the dough into small balls
In a heavy pan, add milk and water, once the mixture starts to boil, lower the flame and add the balls one by one, DO NOT STIR, let it simmer for 5-7 minutes,
add cardamom pdr., coconut and gur syrup or sugar or sugar substitute whatever you desire
once it gets mixed well, it need not boil if you're adding gur syrup, remove, serve hot garnishing with nuts and raisins which can be roasted in little ghee.
ps- this will be healthy if you add gur syrup, for which you soak gur in water about 1/2 cup gur in 1/4 cup warm water, strain and use. Gur has iron, millets are healthier, has it has more fibre.
Coconut has vitamin E good for skin and hair. Gur has iron, milk calcium.
