RAAGI SWEET BALLS

This is a recipe my mother used to make when we came home hungry from school and if we wanted to snack on something before dinner. Since all of us in the family have a sweet tooth, this is a good variation of the more popular 'Raagi Muddhe'. Not only this recipe is very simple to make but also raagi is high in protein and iron and keeps you full for a while.
