Ingredients
- 1 cup Hillsnatural Millet Semiya
- 2 cups water
- 1/4 tsp salt (or to taste)
- 1 tbsp oil (olive or coconut oil)
- 1/2 cup sweet corn (boiled)
- 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds (anar)
- 1/2 tsp mustard seeds
Instructions
Cook the Millet Semiya: Start by boiling 2 cups of water in a saucepan. Add a pinch of salt and then the Hillsnatural millet semiya. Let it cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until it becomes soft and tender. Once cooked, drain any excess water and set the semiya aside to cool.
Prepare the Tempering: In a separate pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds and let them splutter, releasing their wonderful aroma. Once they pop, remove the pan from the heat.
Combine the Ingredients: Add the cooled millet semiya to the pan with the tempering. Stir well to ensure the semiya is evenly coated with the mustard-flavored oil.
Add Sweet Corn and Pomegranate: Gently mix in the boiled sweet corn and pomegranate seeds. These ingredients add a burst of sweetness and color to the salad, making it both nutritious and visually appealing.
Toss and Serve: Toss all the ingredients together until well combined. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt if needed. Serve the millet semiya salad immediately, or chill it for a refreshing cold salad
