  6. Add Ragi Slurry to Soup: Gradually pour the ragi slurry into the simmering soup while stirring continuously to avoid lumps and ensure full incorporation.
  7. Thicken Soup: Continue stirring the soup until it thickens. Let it simmer for 4 to 5 more minutes.

Notes

  • You can adjust the salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
  • For a vegan version, substitute ghee with oil.
  • The soup can be garnished with fresh coriander or a squeeze of lemon for added flavor.
  • Ragi is rich in calcium and fiber, making this soup very nutritious.
  • This soup thickens as it cools; add a little water if reheating to desired consistency.
