Additional Information:	Finger millet or ragi is one of the important minor cereals, which is a rich source of calcium, dietary fibre and other phytochemicals. It was traditionally popped to prepare a ready-to-eat product, which can be conveniently incorporated in supplementary foods. A formulation based on traditionally popped millet and dry heat treated and popped millet was developed by suitably blending it with other ingredients like popped bengal gram flour, skimmed milk powder, vanaspathi etc. The product contained about 10 % protein, 9 % fat, 8% dietary fibre. The product had acceptable textural and sensory qualities. It can be reconstituted with water or milk and can be readily used as a ready to eat supplementary food.
