Here’s how to make your Golden Millet Mountain
Saute onion with bay leaves in oil slowly to release flavour.
Add the millet, stock, tumeric and tamari.
Simmer slowly with lid on for 30 minutes.
During this time, the grain should break down to a soft mash and soak up all the liquid.
When cooked, stir in the chopped pepper, peas, olives, raisins, parsley and capers.
Let the mixture cool slightly, then place in a wetted bowl.
Cool a little to dry out.
Turn out onto plate and serve.
