About Ragi puttu

Ragi Puttu is a traditional steamed dish originating from South Indian cuisine, popular for its wholesome and nourishing qualities. Made primarily from ragi flour (finger millet), grated coconut, and water, this dish is gluten-free and packed with essential nutrients. Ragi is an excellent source of calcium, iron, and dietary fiber, making it ideal for promoting bone health, aiding digestion, and managing blood sugar levels. The steaming process helps retain its nutrient content while avoiding the need for excessive oil or frying. Often served for breakfast, Ragi Puttu can be paired with banana, jaggery, or curries for added flavor and nutrition. It is low in fat but rich in complex carbohydrates and proteins, making it a great option for energy and satiety. However, portion control is key, as its carbohydrate content can affect those on low-carb diets. Simple, hearty, and nutrient-rich, Ragi Puttu is a delightful addition to a balanced diet.
