Time 28m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup millet, rinsed
2 cups water
pinch of salt
1 cup millet, rinsed
2 cups water
2 cups milk of your choice
pinch of salt
1 Tbsp maple syrup or another sweetener (optional)
1 Tbsp butter or coconut oil (optional)
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 cup millet, rinsed
2.5 cups chicken, mushroom, or vegetable stock
pinch of salt
1 cup millet, rinsed
2.5 cups water
pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Place the rinsed millet in a pot.
  • Add water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
  • Reduce the heat and cover the pot. Cook the millet for about 18-20 minutes. Avoid opening the lid and mixing the millet too often because stirring breaks down the grains.
  • Take off the heat and let it stand covered for 5 minutes.
  • Flaff with a fork and serve.
  • In a pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the rinsed millet and stir until the grains are coated in oil. Cook the millet until the grain is heated through and becomes fragrant, for about 2 minutes.
  • Add the liquid and a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  • Reduce the heat and cover the pot. Cook the millet for about 18-20 minutes. Avoid opening the lid and mixing the millet too often because stirring breaks down the grains.
  • Take off the heat and let it stand covered for about 5 minutes.
  • Fluff with a fork and serve.
  • Placed the rinsed millet into a pot.
  • Add the water, milk, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  • Reduce the heat and cover the pot. Cook the millet for about 20 to 23 minutes. Avoid opening the lid and mixing the millet too often because stirring breaks down the grain.
  • Take the pot off the heat. If using the sweetener and butter, open the lid and put them on top of the porridge. Close the lid and let it stand covered for about 5 minutes.
  • Open the lid and mix in the melted butter and sweetener. Serve.
  • Add the rinsed millet, water, and salt to the cooking pot of the 6-quart Instant Pot. You will be cooking on high pressure so make sure the sealing ring is in place. Close the lid shut. Turn the nob to the sealing position. Turn on the Keep Warm function.
  • Cook the millet on high pressure for 10 minutes.
  • To release pressure, let the Instant Pot go into Keep Warm mode and wait for 10 minutes. Then, press Cancell and carefully position the steam release valve on the lid to the Venting position.
  • Carefully open the lid. You will have a lot of condensation on the lid. Make sure that this water doesn't get into the millet. fluff the millet with a fork and serve.

HOW TO COOK PERFECT MILLET EVERY TIME



How To Cook Perfect Millet Every Time image

Provided by Megan Gordon

Categories     Main dish     Lunch     Dinner     Side dish

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup raw millet
2 cups water (or broth, if you'd prefer)
1/4 teaspoon salt, optional
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, optional

Steps:

  • Measure millet and cooking liquid: You'll need 1 cup of raw millet and 2 cups of cooking liquid (water or broth).
  • Toast millet: In a large, dry saucepan, toast the raw millet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes or until it turns a rich golden brown and the grains become fragrant. Be careful not to let them burn.
  • Add the water and salt to the pan: Since the pan is hot, the water will sputter a bit when you pour it in. After adding water and salt, give the millet a good stir.
  • Bring the liquid to a boil: Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Lower the heat and simmer: Decrease the heat to low, drop in the butter and cover the pot. Simmer until the grains absorb most of the water (they'll continue soaking it up as they sit), about 15 minutes. Avoid the temptation to peek a great deal or stir too much (unless its sticking to the bottom). Stirring too vigorously will break up the grains and change the texture.
  • Remove from heat and let stand: Like most grains, millet needs a little time off the heat to fully absorb the liquid. Allow it to sit, covered and removed from heat, for 10 minutes.
  • Fluff and serve! After millet sits, fluff it with a fork. Taste and add additional salt if you'd like. Millet does not keep well and is best served warm (see Additional Notes below).

8 INCREDIBLE WAYS TO COOK WITH MILLET - ONE GREEN PLANET

  • Basic Cooking. Cooking up a pot of millet is not so different than cooking rice. One cup of raw millet makes over 3 cups of cooked millet. In a medium-sized saucepan, add 1 cup of raw millet.
  • Breakfast Porridge. One of the most common ways to eat millet is as breakfast cereal or porridge. To make it creamy instead of fluffy, simply cook the millet in more water.
  • Breakfast for Dinner. There is a popular hot breakfast dish from South India called upma. It’s usually made with semolina called rava but I want mine to be gluten-free so I use millet.
  • Healthy Appetizers. If you follow all my articles and recipes, you know that I will make fries out of anything! Well, millet is no exception. When millet is cooked to be a thick, creamy porridge, it is very similar to polenta and that means it is amenable to being turned into fries.
  • In Place of Other Grains. Millet is capable of doing the job of pretty much any other grain. For example, tabbouleh is usually made with bulgur but a gluten-free version can be made with millet.
  • Stuff Something. Stuffed foods are always fun to eat as well as satisfying. You can stuff tomatoes, mushrooms, zucchini, artichokes and so many other foods.
  • Have a Ball. If you have ever had arancini, you know how delicious they are. Arancini are fried cheesy rice balls usually made with leftover risotto. You can make a pseudo-arancini using millet instead of rice and to make them even healthier, bake instead of frying them.
  • Other Ways to Use Millet. There are so many other ways to use millet in your cooking. It can be used as a binder for veggie burgers like in my Roasted Beet Burgers.
