Rose flavored Ragi malt

Health conscious foods are deceptive. They taste and look bland.
One of those is Ragi malt which has a bland taste. Not everybody likes it.
Am one of those lots.
Food Garnishing and flavoring has visual impact and sensory impression on the food we eat.

I adopted one of my friend's recipe which tempts taste buds through rose flavoring.

Ragi beans - 200gms
rose essence - 10ml

Preparing Rose flavored Ragi Powder.
Grind the ragi beans in to smooth powder.
Add 10ml rose essence to ragi flour and mix well.
Dry it for a day under sun shade and store it in a dry jar.

Making ragi malt.

Mix Ragi powder to a glass of cold milk or water.
Bring glass of milk to a boil and mix cold milk and stirr continuously.
Continue stirring for no lumps until thick and soupy.
Add 2 tablespoon of sugar or honey to enhance taste.

Instant Tit Bit:
Add 2 drops of rose essence to prepared ragi malt soup for an instant kick mix.
Healthy Tit bit:
Instead of sugar try 2 spoons Date Syrup.

If you do have any tempting ragi recipes, i will be happy to share it on my blog.
