Millet flakes make a softly textured evening porridge. The base recipe is the same as Nibli's regular millet porridge, prepared here as a soft evening meal.
Combine the millet flakes and water in a small saucepan, checking the packet for any additional liquid or preparation requirements.
Simmer gently, stirring frequently, until the flakes are fully tender and hydrated; adjust liquid and cooking time as required by the brand.
Blend if necessary, adjust to a moist spoonable consistency and cool before serving.
Offer a soft spoonable porridge with no dry clumps or firm flakes. Provide variety and iron-containing foods through other meals, as plain millet flakes are not a complete meal.
Serve smooth, moist fully cooked millet-flake porridge.
Offer a thicker soft porridge without dry clumps.
Check millet-flake packaging for added grains and allergen cross-contact; pure millet is not wheat.
Cool untouched cooked porridge promptly and refrigerate covered. Reheat thoroughly, stir and cool before feeding; discard bowl leftovers.
