Step 1
20 minutes
Heat a dry pot to medium. Add millet. Stir millet with a wooden spoon. After a few minutes the grains will begin to pop and give off a nutty aroma. Add water and salt and bring to a boil. Simmer for approximately 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Millet will soften like a porridge.
