Millet-Sweet Potato Congee
From Recipes Wiki, the recipe book anyone can contribute to!
[edit] Ingredients
- 1 cup millet
- 6 cups water
- 1 cup peeled diced sweet potatoes (raw or cooked)
- 1 slice peeled fresh ginger
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 4 tablespoons honey
- chestnuts or walnuts (optional)
[edit] Directions
1. Rinse and drain the millet.
2. Put all ingredients except honey and cooked sweet potatoes (if using) in a medium saucepan.
3. Bring to a boil.
4. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until it forms a porridge- 1 hour or so.
5. If you are using cooked sweet potatoes, add them at the end and stir until hot- this will yield a chunkier porridge; raw ones cooked for an hour pretty much dissolve.
6. Turn off the heat.
7. Stir in the honey.
8. Ladle into bowls.
