Millet Burgers

DIRECTIONS

• Heat a small amount of sesame oil in a saucepan and saute the ginger for 2-3 minutes with a sprinkling of salt.
• Add the millet and saute until well-coated with oil and it gives off a nutty fragrance.
• Add boiling water, season lightly with salt and reduce heat to low.
• Cover and simmer for 35 minutes.
• Add veggies, re-cover and simmer for about 5 more minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in corn meal.
• Allow the mixture to stand for 10-15 minutes before forming burgers.
• Shape millet mixture into thick patties.
• Heat enough sesame oil in a skillet to pan-fry the burgers.
• You will need to make the oil about 1/8-inch deep to fry evenly.
• Fry until golden, about 3 minutes each side.
• Remove from the skillet and drain on paper.
• Serve as you would any conventional burger.
