Sweet ragi koozh recipe with step by step photos.This ragi koozh especially the sweet ragi koozh is my favourite since I started liking porridges.Ragi porridge is a nutritious healthy drink which can be substituted for breakfast and it keeps you full till lunch time.
Ragi koozh or ragi porridge is very easy to prepare and best for breakfast.I hated porridges for breakfast during my childhood days and now I just love them.I have seen and tasted this ragi porridge in my friends house as its their custom to have ragi porridge every sunday.
I am trying to include porridges for mittu and gugu regularly so that they are always in touch with these porridges.Mittu prefers to have multigrain porridge.

- When it starts to thicken switch to a laddle and keep stirring.Keep cooking low flame and keep stirring continuously.
- Cook until it forms a thick pudding like consistency.See it will look shiny like this.Switch off.

Notes
