Method

  1. Wash the little millet (kutki) well and soak it in water for about 20 minutes, then drain.
  2. Boil the soaked millet in fresh water with a little salt till it is cooked through but still separate and fluffy, similar to cooking rice. Drain any excess water and fluff with a fork.
  3. Heat the oil in a pan and add the cumin seeds, letting them splutter and turn fragrant.
  4. Add the cooked millet to the tempering and toss gently so every grain gets coated with the tempered oil and cumin.

  6. Check and adjust the salt as needed.
  7. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves.
  8. Serve the kutki millet rice hot as a light, wholesome meal with a side of curd or pickle.
