Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup fonio dry
  • 4 cups water
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups milk
  • 4 tablespoons sugar

For the decor

  • 4 tablespoons raisins
  • 2 tablespoons peanuts
  • 2 tablespoons honey liquid

Instructions

  1. Wash the fonio by placing it in a large bowl and covering it with water.
  2. Stir it with the fingers, then drain it.
  3. Repeat this process until the water runs clear. Drain well.
  4. Add the fonio into a large saucepan with 4 cups (1 liter) of water and salt.
  5. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until the fonio has absorbed all the liquid.
  6. Stir in the milk and continue to cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for another 20 to 25 minutes, until obtaining a thick, creamy porridge.
  7. Remove from the heat, add the sugar and stir well.
  8. Garnish with raisins, peanuts and a drizzle of honey, then serve immediately.

Notes

  • This porridge solidifies as it cools, so do not let it sit for long.
