Amount Ingredient
1 cup millet
2 cup boiling water
1/4 tsp salt
Pinch saffron
1 tsp olive oil
1 cup minced onions
2 x garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup minced celery
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup minced red or green bell peppers
1/2 cup fresh or frozen green peas
1/4 cup currants
1 x to 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Instructions:
Instructions: In a heavy skillet, toast millet on medium-high heat, stirring constantly until it is fragrant and begins to brown, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Carefully pour the boiling water into the very hot skillet in a thin, steady stream. Add the salt and saffron, cover; cook on very low heat 15 minutes.

While millet is cooking, warm the oil in a medium saucepan. Add the onions, garlic, celery, oregano and cinnamon. Saute for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, then cover and cook on low heat for 5 minutes.

Add bell peppers and peas, cover and continue to cook until all the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, fluff the millet with a fork, replace cover and remove from heat.

When vegetables are tender, stir in currants and lemon juice and cook for one minute, until thoroughly hot.

Mix the vegetables into the millet and add salt and pepper to taste.
