Ragi Semiya is always one an item in my grocery list. Somehow I missed posting the recipe. Ragi is rich source of Iron, calcium, fibers, proteins and other essential minerals. Ragi is easy to digest and helps in losing weight. Ragi Semiya can be served for breakfast or evening snacks. I added shredded coconut to this semiya to make it more appealing to my kids.  I simply followed the instructions given in the back of the semiya packet. Please check below for step by step instructions and pictures for preparing South Indian Ragi Semiya | Finger Millet Vermicelli upma.
