Fonio Pilaf with Dates and Peanuts
A fragrant and slightly sweet pilaf made with fonio, a nutritious ancient grain, studded with sweet dates and savory roasted peanuts. This dish is a wonderful side or a light main course, showcasing the versatility of fonio.
🧂 सामग्री
- 1 cup Fonio
- 2 cups Water or Vegetable Broth
- 2 tablespoons Palm oil or Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Medjool dates(pitted and chopped)
- 0.5 cup Roasted peanuts(roughly chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper(or to taste)
- 1 medium Carrots(finely diced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt(or to taste)
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper(freshly ground, or to taste)
👨🍳 निर्देश
- 1
In a medium saucepan, heat the palm oil over medium heat. Add the chopped dates, roasted peanuts, cayenne pepper, and diced carrots. Cook, stirring, until the carrots soften slightly, about 8-10 minutes.
- 2
Add the fonio to the saucepan and stir until it is well-coated with the oil and aromatics, about 2 minutes.

Pour in the water or vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Season with salt and black pepper.

Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan tightly, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fonio has absorbed all the liquid and is tender. Avoid stirring during this time to prevent the fonio from becoming mushy.

Once cooked, let the fonio pilaf rest, covered, off the heat for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.
