Millet Ganji Recipe | Millet Porridge | Siridhanya Recipes

April 17, 2017 By Raji Leave a Comment

Millet Ganji is one of the healthiest and easiest dish. It is best for breakfast. Ganji can be prepared using rice and millets. This is super food for kids too.

Here I am using haarka/kodo millet for making this delicious Kanji. We can make it plain or add any vegetables to make it more wholesome. According to Dr. Khader millets are the best food ever to prevent and cure any chronic illness and Millets which is popularly called Siridhanya, believed to be good for diabetic patients since it releases the glucose slowly. All millets are non glutinous grains.
