Mixed Cereal Stew

Ingredients

• •1/2 cup wheat grains, soaked overnight
• •1/2 cup sorghum or millet, soaked overnight
• •4 cups stock
• •2 tablespoons oil
• •1 onion, chopped
• •2 cups mixture of potatoes, carrots and cabbage, chopped
• •1/2 cup milk
• •Salt
• •Pepper

Directions

1. 1Start the stew by draining the cereals, keeping the water they were soaked in. Now put them into a pan with the stock, cover and bring to the boil. Then turn down the heat and simmer for 45-minutes or until the grains are soft, adding some of retained soaking water if necessary to prevent them from drying out.
2. 2Using another pan, heat up the oil and sauté the onion until it’s golden. Add the potatoes and carrots and cook them for 10 minutes, stirring often so they do not catch. Then put in the cabbage and the remaining stock and cook for 5 to 8 minutes more.
3. 3When the vegetables are done, stir in the cooked cereals, add the milk and boil gently until the stew is the desired consistency for you.
4. 4Add the pepper and salt and serve with sliced tomatoes.
