Millets are wonderful and superfoods. They are our ancient grains which are so gut friendly and nutritious foods which can be eaten by all. Barnyard millet is rich in calcium, protein, iron, fibre, potassium, zinc and vitamin B complex. I have given a lemony flavour by adding lemons from my mom's garden❤️ enjoy!
