Take ragi in a vessel and wash it. Then soak the ragi in clean water for 12 hours. Keep it covered (with provision to some air to enter) while soaking. After 12 hours, open. Then drain the water completely. Transfer the drained ragi to a clean white cloth for sprouting. Place the cloth with ragi in a colander. Tie it up with all four corners and keep it undisturbed for another 12 hours for sprouting. After 12 hours, open the cloth carefully. You could see the tiny sprouts in ragi.
