Finger Millet ( Ragi )
Timbaktu Organic₹35.00 – ₹65.00Finger millet is especially valuable as it contains the amino acid methionine, lacking in the diets of those who live on starchy staples such as polished rice, cassava or maize meal. Finger millet can be ground and cooked into flatbreads (rotis), pancakes (dosas), cakes, puddings or porridge.

Kodo Millet Rice ( Aarika, Harka )
Timbaktu Organic₹80.00Araka or Kodo is very high in fibre content, especially when it is whole grain. It loses much of its nutritive value, like other cereals and grains, when polished. The nutritive value of Kodo millet can be enhanced when supplemented with lentils or pulses. Kodo, hence, goes well with dals or a good gravy of any of the pulses.
