Sake-Spashed Millet with Miso and Gingered Greens and Tofu

Ingredients
  

  • SAKE-SPLASHED MILLET
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons garlic chopped
  • 1 cup millet
  • 3 cups vegetable broth more if necessary
  • 1/2 cauliflower chopped
  • 1/4 cup miso
  • 1/3 cup sake
  • GINGERED GREENS AND TOFU
  • 2 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoon garlic chopped
  • 4 tablespoon ginger chopped
  • 6 turnips sliced
  • 1 head of cabbage shredded or a big bunch of greens, chopped into bits
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 pound tofu diced
  • 4 tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions
 

  • Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add chopped garlic and saute for 3 minutes, or until fragrant. Add millet and stir until the millet toasts. Add cauliflower and broth, reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer for 30 minutes, checking progress periodically, Should mixture dry out, add a splash more broth. After half an hour, all the liquid should be absorbed and the millet should have a porridge like consistency.
  • Using an immersion blender, food processor or the back of a spoon, puree millet and cauliflower. It should smooth out and fluff up a bit. Stir in miso and sake and serve.

  • Reduce heat to medium, add vegetable broth, tofu and soy sauce. Continue cooking until heated through and greens are tender, about 8 minutes.
