Ingredients

1 cup white or yellow millet
2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar (optional, for a slightly sweet taste)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil or butter
Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Prepare Millet

Rinse the millet under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.

Cook Millet

In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the rinsed millet and salt (and sugar if using). Stir well.

Simmer

Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the millet is tender and the water is absorbed. Stir occasionally.

Add Fat

Once the millet is cooked, remove from heat. Stir in the vegetable oil or butter until well combined.

Serve

Fluff the millet with a fork and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
