Millets were one
of the oldest foods known to humans. Wheat and rice may be among the most
popular grains but millets are amongst the healthiest of grains today. Whole millets
and millet flours are naturally gluten free and a great alternative to rice and
wheat to most recipes.
I found a pack of ‘millet mix powder’ which was sold by one of my friends. It
sounded great because it’s quick cooking, healthy and hopefully tasty. Millets
are many, round in shape, tiny in size, high in nutrition, capable of growing
in harsh climatic condition.
This packaged mix has Pearl millet, Foxtail
millet, ragi, White jowar, Arka millet, Long wheat, fenugreek and Mung bean. I
have used “Sweet corn Cup a Soup” also just for the favour here but use
vegetable stock instead of water to skip it. I used some extra red chili flakes
to spice it up but feel free to use black pepper instead. It is super easy to make this soup and the
goodness of it is just amazing! Millet is gluten free grain which is easy to
digest so it is good for elder aged even good for children also this quick and
easy recipe requires only 10 minute to cook it perfectly.

boiled millet which will add more nutritive value.
