    Ragi Soup or Finger Millet Soup is a healthy and nutritious, flavor-packed soup recipe prepared using finger millet flour and veggies of your choice.

    Ragi Soup is our new favorite because even a picky eater like my son loved this so much that he came back for 2nd and 3rd helpings.

    I will be posting a series of ragi recipes that can be tried by babies (who have been introduced to solid food), kids, diabetic patients, and people of all age groups.

    You can read the benefits of ragi here.

    This ragi soup is a nutritious, flavor-packed, one-pot meal in itself. The different veggies added along with ragi flour not only makes this soup filling, but also transforms this soup into a wholesome meal with necessary vitamins, minerals, and fiber for your daily needs.

    More the veggies, the better for you 🙂 So feel free to add any locally grown, seasonal veggies available at your local farmers' market!

    If you are on a diabetic-friendly diet or weight loss program, I highly recommend adding this soup to your meal plan!!!

    Until I started making this soup, we were a big fan of restaurant-style sweet corn soup. But ragi soup is now everyone's favorite. I highly recommend this soup for both health benefits and its taste.

    Quick tips before you start making this soup
    • Use any veggies that you and your kids love. Some veggies that can be added to the soup include carrots, capsicum (bell pepper), green beans, cauliflower, cabbage, broccoli, green peas, baby corn, mushroom, sweet corn, spinach (palak), mustard greens, etc.
    • You can also vary the amount of all ingredients as per your preference.
    • My kids do not prefer anything spicy. So I generally don't add pepper powder or pepper flakes to the recipe. I provide pepper powder and red pepper flakes as a side so that each person can add as much as they need. 
    • The amount of water used in the recipe gives the perfect soup consistency when served hot. Ragi soup thickens as it cools down. In that case, adjust the consistency by adding water and heat again.
    • I have added cilantro. You can switch it with parsley or spring onions.
    • To make it protein-rich, you can also add chickpeas or other cooked beans of your choice if needed. You can also add tofu or paneer to make the soup protein-packed.

    Can I drink ragi soup daily?

    Ragi is high in fiber, and if you have any constipation problem, you should not consume ragi daily as it takes a longer time to digest. Make sure to drink enough fluids to avoid constipation problems.

      Such a lovely & healthy recipe, I tried it out and t came so well! I was not expecting Ragi to taste as good as it did when made this soup, the flavour of Ragi with it earthiness, and the umami from mushrooms, plus veggies for added color and taste, I absolutely loved the soup, and made & ate quite a few servings myself!S Many thanks for your recipe!
