Soak the ragi for atleast an hour.
Blend it properly by adding 1glass of water to it.
Drain the extra water from the blended mixture so that the unwanted particles with water goes away.
Turn on the gas and put the mixture in a pan.
Add jaggery,cardamom powder,black pepper and a pinch of salt to it. Mix it well in a low flame.
Keep on stirring it until you get a thick consistency(semi-solid) mixture. You can see the mixture turning brown in colour after it becomes semi solid.
Turn off the flame and spread the whole mixture in a huge plate like you spread the batter of a cake in an oven bowl.
Let it cool down. Then, you can keep it in refrigerator.
Serve it chilled by cutting it in shape of barfi/katli.
