Vegetable Fried Millet is a really useful recipe to make midweek as it is very quick, is a good way to use up leftovers and is healthy too! Millet is a grain which can be ground to make flour or can be cooked and eaten in a similar way to how we cook and use quinoa. It has a fluffy texture like steamed rice which makes it perfect for this veggie fried millet dish.
The ingredients I use in this recipe are suggested ingredients – you can easily substitute broccoli with bok choy or cabbage if you prefer. You can add different ingredients too if you prefer. Sometimes I add chopped red pepper or green beans for variety. If you like spicy food, drizzle with some Asian chilli sauce before serving.
To make my Vegetable Fried Millet, you will need the following ingredients:
Cook millet according to package instructions.
Chop 1 onion, 3 garlic cloves, 1 - 2 carrots and ½ cup of broccoli (or bok choy or cabbage).
Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a large non-stick skillet with a lid. Add 3 beaten eggs and scramble over medium-high heat.
Stir in 1 chopped onion and 3 chopped garlic cloves and stir well together. Add ½ cup of frozen peas and 2 cups of cooked millet. Stir again.
Add another tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and stir well.
Add 1-2 chopped carrots and ½ cup of chopped broccoli. Stir to combine and turn off the heat. Leave to sit for a few minutes.
Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning by adding more soy sauce or adding salt and pepper. Serve warm.
This Vegetable Fried Millet tastes better and is much healthier than the more traditional veggie fried rice. Try it soon and don’t forget to tag #cookmerecipes in your midweek dinner posts.

It's a great recipe, thank you for sharing it with me i'll be frying this often :)
Made this and some yummy cheesy garlic bread, it might sound odd but they actually go well together.
My kids never eat their vegetables but when I make it with fried millet they gobble it right up along with some bacon bits of course, have to sell it to them some how,LOL!
I died and came back after eating this fried millet, I love it so much omg.
Delicious millet, I decided to add some extra vegies to mine though so it would be more crunchy.
