MILLET FLOUR / RAGI POWDER PROTEIN LADDU

Every one knows that Ragi / Millet is good for health. From Ragi we make Chappati, roti, biscuit, cookies, sweets .. so many things. Today I made Ragi flour laddu, adding protein powder. We had bought protein powder for my daughter some time back. She did not like its taste in milk and she stopped taking it. I did not want to waste this expensive powder, so  thought of making use of it in future and kept in fridge. I was sitting in front of TV watching some news, then suddenly felt making something with the protein. Got up and checked whether there is ragi in the container, everything was there which i wanted for making laddus. Making laddu is very simple procedure and not at all a messy affair.
