👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Rinse the millet thoroughly under cold water.
💡 전문가 팁: Rinsing removes any dust or debris and helps prevent clumping.
2
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3
Stir in ground cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili flakes. Cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
4
Add the diced sweet potato, undrained diced tomatoes, and rinsed millet to the pot. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
💡 전문가 팁: Ensure all ingredients are well combined.
5
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the millet and sweet potato are tender, stirring occasionally.
6
In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter and about 1 cup of the hot broth from the pot until smooth. Pour this mixture back into the stew and stir well to combine.
💡 전문가 팁: This step ensures the peanut butter is fully incorporated without lumps.
7
Continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 10-15 minutes, or until the stew has thickened to your desired consistency. Season with salt to taste.
8
Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro. This stew is delicious on its own or served with pap.
💡 전문가 팁: Pap, a maize meal porridge, is a traditional accompaniment.
