#healthycookingwithmillets - A perfect way to start your day is with these Ragi Idlis, that are not only wholesome, but very healthy too. It contains calcium, iron and is high on fiber content. It is much more better than any refined or whole wheat flour. It is not only low in carb, but it is gluten free and is very good for diabetics. The colour may not be appealing to the eyes, but if garnished skillfully, they can be a visual treat.
