Raagi or finger millet is the best natural source of iron and hence good for building haemoglobin. I was also advised by the doctor to take raagi as it is a very rich and readily available source of iron. I used to take a porridge made of raagi,milk and sugar almost everyday and got quite bored of the taste. But then I now occasionally enjoy this quick soup with or without the vegetables. You can also just omit the vegetables, add yogurt to the cooked raagi soup for a different taste.
Source- Adige mane ruchi(with some changes)
Ingredients-
Raagi/finger millet flour- 2tsp
Salt to taste
Carrots- 1 chopped(You can use other vegetables too.)
Method-
Boil the clean chopped carrots in one glass of water till it turns soft. Add a glass of water in raagi flour gradually and ensure that there are no lumps in it(it should be a dilute mixture as it thickens on heating). Add salt. Mix well. Add this diluted raagi mixture to the cooked carrots (along with the stock). Stir till it thickens a little. Serve warm.

This is so very healthy! One of my friend told me that Raagi is an authentic "Tamilar" food. I am beginning to experiment with Raagi too. When I do the Blogging Marathon(3rd batch), you will see a recipe with this as a star ingredient too.
