Finger Millet Flattened Rice / Ragi Aval 200gm
Finger Millet, popularly known as Ragi, is biologically unmatched in the cereal world for its calcium content—containing nearly 10 times more than wheat or rice. By switching to Ayini’s Ragi Aval, you are providing your body with a natural, plant-based source of bone-fortifying minerals and essential amino acids like Methionine and Lysine, which are critical for skin elasticity and muscle metabolic health.

💡 How to Prepare / Use (Step-by-Step)
Prep: Finger Millet flakes are very porous and delicate. Do not soak them in a bowl of water. Instead, place the Ragi Aval in a mesh strainer and rinse quickly under a gentle tap. Let it rest in the strainer for 2–3 minutes; the absorbed moisture will be enough to soften it perfectly.
Method: To make a savory Ragi Poha, sauté onions, chilies, and peanuts in a pan. Once the vegetables are soft, gently fluff the dampened Ragi flakes into the pan. Cover and steam on the lowest heat for just 1–2 minutes to avoid the flakes becoming too mushy.
Serve/Enjoy: Best enjoyed as a warm, savory breakfast with a side of coconut chutney, or as a "Ragi Sweet Aval" by mixing the softened flakes with grated coconut, jaggery, and a pinch of cardamom.
