Notes
- Vegetable choice: This recipe is perfect for using up vegetables from your fridge. You can easily swap in whatever you have on hand, like broccoli, carrots, zucchini, pumpkin cubes, spinach, or mushrooms. Feel free to add fresh herbs of your choice for extra flavor.
- Washing millet before cooking removes dirt, dust, and its natural bitter coating. This makes it taste better, cook evenly, and have a light, fluffy texture.
