Step 1

Ideally, rinse the millet and soak it in water overnight before processing, see questions "Should you rinse millet before cooking?" and "Why should we soak millet before cooking?" in the post above.

Step 2

Put the water and coconut milk in a saucepan, add the millet and cinnamon and bring to the boil.

Step 3

Let simmer uncovered on low to medium heat for about 10 minutes. Stir in between so that nothing burns.

Step 4

Then switch off the stove, but leave the millet to swell for another 10 minutes. Now the excess liquid is sucked up, and you will soon have a creamy result. If you have a gas stove where the stove doesn't stay hot forever, let the millet cook a few minutes longer.

Step 5

Mash a banana with a fork and stir it into your porridge.
