@Anonymoussprouted ragi is more nutritious for babies. But store bought ones can be given as well. Make sure it is clean ones.

Hello Aarthi,
I tried this recipe as it is very nutritious. I added palm jaggery just like you. But the moment I add the jaggery, the ragi malt gets segregated ( it is like milk and ragi look separated), and the consistency is not good at all. Any idea why this happens?
Thanks !!

Add jaggery only taking it off the flame. if u cook after adding jaggery then it will get separated
