Soak the millet in water for several hours. The millet should be covered with water for about two centimeters.
Step 2
Cut the onion into small cubes and then sauté them well in a pot with 1 tablespoon of canola oil.
Step 3
Next, add the millet to the pot and toast it briefly to create a nutty aroma.
Step 4
Now deglaze the millet with twice the amount of vegetable stock and let the whole thing boil up briefly on the highest setting.
Step 5
Let the millet simmer gently for about 20 minutes with the lid closed.
Step 6
Take the covered pot off the stove and let the millet sit for another ten minutes.

You can always precook a larger amount of millet and store it in the refrigerator for several days. This way you always have some cooked millet that only needs to be reheated briefly.
