Preparation time: 45 minutes approx
Cooking time: 30 minutes approx
Ingredients: (to feed 2 - multiply as
required)
|
2 cups hulled millet
|
|
1 small cauliflower or ½ a large one
|
|
4 cloves garlic, chopped
|
|
parsley, chopped
|
|
olives, pitted and chopped
|
|
fresh chilli, chopped
|
|
olive oil, salt
|
Method:
|
1.
|
Bring 2 litres water to the boil. Salt to taste. Add millet
and simmer until ready (no longer crunchy).
|
|
2.
|
Drain, saving the stock, and set millet aside.
|
|
3.
|
Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized pieces and steam until
tender. Set aside.
|
|
4.
|
In a large pot or saucepan, fry garlic in olive oil. Add
cauliflower and sautee (continue to cook over a high flame,
"tossing" the ingredients continuously). Salt to
taste.
|
|
5.
|
Add olives, parsley, fresh chilli and stir over heat until
all ingredients thoroughly mixed.
|
|
6.
|
Add millet and combine by stirring while gradually adding
enough stock to give moist consistency without becoming soggy.
|
|
7.
|
Serve and enjoy.
|
Hint: make sure you do buy hulled
millet. Unhulled (with the husks on), it will need special treatment
or else it really is only fit for the birds!
