  • Pour 2 cups water into the pan. Depending on the quality of Millet you have used, you can add less or more water. You can replace water with vegetable stock.
  • Season with salt. Mix very well. To figure out if you have added the right amount of salt, check the taste of the water. You should feel some saltiness in the water. This means the amount of salt added is right. If the water does not feel salty, then you need to add some more salt.
  • Stir and tightly cover the pot or pan with its lid.
  • Cover and cook the Millet until all the water is absorbed. Cook on a low to medium flame. Usually, in the beginning, I cook on a medium-low or medium flame and then halfway through, I lower the flame. Check a few times during cooking to ensure there is enough water. Depending on the quality of Millet, you may need to add more water.
  • Once the Millet are cooked, 5 minutes covered with the lid. Serve with year Favourite Curry or chutney Garnish with coriander Leaves.
