To that add water,cooked rice and 1 tsp ragi flour,salt Don't mix and allow
it to boil.

The boiling water will cover up entire ragi flour.
Finally when almost entire ragi is inside, just use a wooden rod or a
wooden chapathi roller and mix nicely. You need to put a little effort to mix
as it tends to be sticky.
