Categories: Main dish, Vegetarian, Side dish
Yield: 8 Servings

4.00 c Millet
6.00 c Water
1.50 ts Salt
4.00 c Diced turnips

Wash millet and drain with a fine mesh strainer until water comes
clean. Place millet in a heavy pot and add cooking water. Let soak
4-8 hours or overnight before cooking.

Add salt and diced turnips. Bring to a boil, place heat deflector
under the pot, then simmer over low flame for 45-50 minutes. For a
creamier texture, allow millet to sit in the pot 10 minutes before
uncovering. Mash with a potato masher; if necessary, add a cup of
water while mashing to make a mashed potato consistency. Transfer to
a serving bowl and cover. Serve with an ice cream scoop and top with
gravy.
