1) Boil 2 cups of milk, soak dates, cashew nuts/ kaju and badam/ almonds in hot milk for 10 milk or powder almonds, dates and soak dates in hot milk.

2) Grind the soaked dates, cashew nuts and badam coarsely(if you serving it to toddlers or elders(old age ppl you can prepare fine paste) and keep it aside.

3) Take 1/2 glass of water in a glass or cup, add 2 tsp of ragi flour in it. Mix it well without any lumps and keep it aside.

4) Boil 2 glasses of water in a pan or vessel, add above prepared ragi mixture in it and boil it on low flames till it becomes thick. Mix it continuously so that we will get smooth texture without any lumps. (** check tips)

5) Now add prepared dates and dry fruit paste,boiled milk, jaggery or sugar or brown sugar (add according to your taste), elachi powder and mix everything well.

6) Mix the above well without any lumps and boil it for 2 minutes on low flames.

7) That's it our ragi malt is ready decorate it with some chopped dates and dry fruits. You can serve it hot or cool, ragi malt turns thick after some time. Add boiled milk or boiled water and serve. I always serve hot with some chopped almonds and kismis/raisins on it.

Tips

**Do not add ragi flour directly while boiling water, it will becomes lumps and do not cook well.

** You can mix ragi flour and water and then boil it directly, but i prefer this method.

** Use jaggery or brown sugar or sugar according to your availability. Adding jaggery gives different taste when compared to sugar and brown sugar. I prefer adding brown sugar.

** Adjust sweetness according to your taste. 

** You can skip adding dry fruits,dates. You can prepare plain ragi malt too.

** Do not boil it high flames, keep mixing it while boiling to get smooth lumps free texture.
