Ingredients:
-
1 cup Buddha Ratana Little Millet
-
2–2½ cups water
-
Salt, to taste
-
1 tsp ghee or oil, optional
Method:
-
Rinse Thoroughly
Wash the Little Millet 2–3 times with clean water to remove surface dust and impurities. -
Soak (Optional)
Soak for approximately 20–30 minutes for more even cooking and a softer texture. Drain well before cooking. -
Cook the Millet
Add 1 cup Little Millet and approximately 2–2½ cups fresh water to a saucepan. Add salt and ghee or oil if desired. -
Bring to a Boil
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. -
Simmer & Cover
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 15–20 minutes, or until the millet is tender and the water has been absorbed. -
Rest
Turn off the heat and leave covered for approximately 5 minutes. -
Fluff & Serve
Gently fluff with a fork and serve warm, or cool before using in salads and grain bowls.
💡 Cooking Tip
For soft and fluffy Little Millet, rinse well and avoid excessive stirring while it cooks. Water absorption can vary slightly depending on the batch and cooking method, so adjust the quantity of water according to your preferred texture.
For khichdi or porridge, use additional water and cook until the millet reaches a soft, creamy consistency.
