It is best to use bright yellow cereals for cooking, because it is perfectly boiled soft, has a delicate taste, and there is no bitterness in it. The sticky mass is obtained from white millet, but the dark groats are cooked for a long time, it turns out crumbly, so it should first be boiled in water and only then poured with milk and boiled for some more time.

Any cereal before cooking rinse under running water, this also applies to millet porridge. During cooking, the fire should not be strong, otherwise the dish will stick to the bottom of the pan. Especially tasty is millet porridge in the oven, when a clay pot is used as a container.

The easiest way that housewives most often use is a saucepan and a stove. In this case, the fire should not be strong, and a lid is placed on the container, which does not allow moisture to evaporate, but is absorbed into the millet. The best saucepan is always the one with thick walls, a cauldron for pilaf is excellent, since cereals in such a dish do not burn to the walls.

The fastest method involves using a slow cooker. The hostess only needs to fill the equipment with ingredients and set the required mode, the multicooker will do the rest for her.

If the porridge is cooked incorrectly, it acquires a bitter aftertaste, which is why they do not like it. Knowing the intricacies of cooking, you can get a delicious dish that is great for breakfast for children. A classic of Russian cuisine is millet cooked in milk with pumpkin or fruit. The correct consistency is obtained only if the grains are well boiled.otherwise the porridge will be dry and tasteless.

To prepare the dish, you will need two glasses of cereals, four tablespoons of water, 60 grams of butter. Sugar and salt are added to taste.

Before using millet, it will need to be washed well several times with cold water and once with hot water.Grain with water is brought to a boil, the foam is removed. It is better to make the fire not strong, but cover the pan with a lid so that all the moisture is absorbed and not evaporated. When the cereal is boiled, milk is added, salted and sugared, the burner is switched to a minimum.

The dish will be ready when it thickens. Oil is added last, the lid is tightly closed, the pan is wrapped in pillows and the porridge is allowed to brew.

Despite the fact that the dish remains unloved, nutritionists advise eating it, since the cereal is hypoallergenic and ideal for a child's diet. It is remarkably digestible and easy to prepare. Double boiling in water and then in milk seems too long and complicated for some. You can use modern technology, which greatly simplifies the process.

Any model of multicooker is able to cope with the task. You should not buy millet that has been stored on the shelf for a long time, as it may turn rancid. For the container, you will need one and a half glasses of cereals (we take the glass that comes with the equipment), four - water and five - milk. Salt and sugar are added to taste, as is butter.

Millet is sorted and washed thoroughly, transferred to a container, filled with water, and then milk. The butter is cut and laid out on the surface of the cereal. Add sugar and salt.

For cooking, either the porridge or pilaf cooking mode is used, if there is none. As a result, the dish turns out to be the perfect consistency.

Indeed, you can cook a wonderful dish with powdered milk, but it must be done correctly, following the recipe. For this you will need:

• 150 grams of cereals;
• two hundred and fifty grams of dry mix;
• liter of water;
• butter to taste;
• sugar and salt.

The cereal must be washed until the water becomes clear. The bitterness is removed by pouring hot water over the cereal for five minutes.

Water is poured into the pan, when it boils, cereals are poured, which at first will need to be mixed, otherwise it will burn. Powdered milk is prepared for use. It is poured into a pan and put on fire. Slowly pouring in water, stir until the mixture is completely dissolved. The result should be a mass that resembles thick sour cream in consistency. Switch off, add more water and mix again.

Delicious porridge is prepared in many ways, including milk with pumpkin. Average cooking time is 60 minutes. It will take two hundred grams of cereal, a little vegetable pulp, 700 grams of milk and half a glass of water. Salt and sugar to taste, butter as well.

At the first stage, the water is brought to a boil, milk is poured. It is imperative that it be fresh, otherwise it will simply curl up and be unusable. Add sugar and salt, stir until completely dissolved.

The cereal is washed, poured for several minutes with hot water, because it is necessary to remove the bitterness. The pumpkin is peeled and cut into pieces, it is better if they are small.

Pour the grits into the already boiled liquid and cook for a couple of minutes, put the pumpkin and cover the pan with a lid for twenty minutes. Remove from heat, add oil and let it brew.

To make breakfast even more useful, we use honey instead of sugar, and as an addition - dried apricots, prunes and raisins.A glass of cereal requires a liter of milk, a handful of dried fruits, a little butter and honey. Salt is placed at the discretion of the hostess.

In order for dry fruits to soften well, they must be washed and soaked for half an hour in hot water. Millet, as always, is washed and treated with boiling water.

A glass of water is poured into the container, millet is poured in and boiled until all the liquid has evaporated. When the grain swells, pour in the milk. While the porridge is being prepared, dried fruits can be cut, or you can leave them as a whole - as you like.

We taste the porridge, and if it boils well, spread the prunes, dried apricots and raisins, add honey, turn off the stove and put the butter. Let the dish rest. The most important thing to remember is that honey is not boiled, because then it loses its beneficial qualities.
