Cooking approach and texture

The technique here centres on boiling. Keep preparation organised before heating the pan, then cook gently so grains, batter or vegetables reach the right texture without becoming dry.

One useful cue from the method is to soak pearl millets in the water over night.Drain it and keep it aside to remove excess water. Grind the millets in the grinder but do not over grind it. Continue through the remaining steps in order so the ingredients come together with a more consistent finish.
