Pas a pas

Rinse the millet thoroughly under cold running water until the water runs clear; drain well.

Stir in the garlic, cumin, coriander, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 1 minute, until fragrant.
Uns 1 min
Nota de cuina: Be careful not to burn the garlic.
5
Add the rinsed millet to the pot and stir to coat it with the spices and vegetables. Toast for 2-3 minutes.
Uns 3 min

6
Pour in the vegetable broth, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
