Lotus Middle Eastern Jewelled Millet
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients:
• 1 cup Lotus Organic Hulled Millet
• ¼ cup Lotus Organic Currants
• ¼ cup Lotus Organic Goji Berries
• ½ cup pistachios or almonds, roasted and roughly chopped
• ½ bunch mint leaves
• 1 orange, sliced and diced
• 1 pomegranate, using only the seeds
• Herb vinaigrette to dress
Method:
Cook the hulled millet for 15-20 minutes in 2 cups of water or until tender, then refrigerate to cool.
