Cómo preparar African Millet Salad With Corn And Peppers

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Saute 1 medium onion until golden brown and soft (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and 1 inch grated ginger. Cook for 1 minute. Stir in 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon allspice, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Cook for another minute.
  3. Rinse 1 cup millet under cold water until water runs clear.
  4. Add the rinsed millet to the pan; stir to coat with the oil and spices. Cook for 1-2 minutes until heated through.
  5. Add 2 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.

  7. Transfer the cooked millet to a bowl and let cool completely.
  8. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar.
