Ingredients
1 cup millet
¼ teaspoon salt
2 ½ cups water
1 tablespoon canola oil
¾ teaspoon cumin
¼ teaspoon turmeric
¼ teaspoon garam masala
1 cup frozen peas
Instructions
- Combine millet, salt and water in a medium to large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a low simmer and cook, covered, for about 20 minutes, or until water is evaporated and millet is fluffy.
- When the millet is about halfway done cooking, heat a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add the canola oil and stir to coat the pan, then add the cumin, turmeric and garam masala. Stir for an additional 30 seconds, until the spices are fragrant. Add the peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until the peas are warmed through, about 5-10 minutes.
- When the millet is done cooking, add the spiced pea mixture into the pot of millet and stir to combine.
