Millet & Butternut Squash - Mon 26th Oct 2009
Millet and Butternut Squash.



Millet is a very versatile grain with a sweet, nutty flavor that goes exceptionally well with squash.

Traditional Chinese Medicine recommends millet for problems of blood sugar and the pancreas.

You can make fresh millet for this recipe or use leftover millet by simply steaming it and allowing it to cool.



Preparation time: 10 minutes

Cooking time: 35 to 40 minutes

Yield: 4 servings



1 cup millet

1 teaspoon mustard seeds

1 teaspoon curry powder

2 cups peeled and diced butternut squash

1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger

1/2 cup cooked corn

2-1/2 cups water

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1 clove garlic, crushed

1/2 cup fresh chopped cilantro (coriander)



1. After washing and rinsing the millet, dry roast the millet in a large skillet over medium heat for about 4 minutes.

Stir constantly until the millet starts to pop.

2. Remove the millet from the skillet, and set aside.

3. Toast the mustard seeds and curry powder in the skillet over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes until they're aromatic.

4. Mix the millet, mustard seeds, squash, ginger, corn, water, and sea salt in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat.

5. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes or until the millet has absorbed all the water.

6. Remove the pan from the heat. When the mixture is cool, add the cilantro.

7. Wet your hands and blend the mixture to a uniform consistency. Form the mixture into 12 cakes and grill for approximately
3 minutes on each side, or until golden.
Alternatively, dust the cakes with a coating of flour, heat a tablespoon of oil into a skillet and lightly fry for 3-4 minutes each side.8. Serve hot.
