Springtime Stir-Fried Millet

This stir-fried millet with seasonal vegetables is comforting, delicious and filling. It’s perfect for rainy spring days. I used asparagus and carrots here, but feel free to substitute sliced broccoli, bell pepper strips, or any other thinly sliced vegetable.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup millet, rinsed
• 3 cups water
• Salt, to taste
• 1 tablespoon or more of organic peanut oil or vegetable oil, divided
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil, divided
• 2 eggs, beaten
• ½ inch fresh ginger, skin removed and finely chopped or grated through a Microplane
• 2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
• 3 carrots, sliced into ribbons with a vegetable peeler
• Handful of asparagus, tough ends snapped off and sliced into 2-inch pieces
• ½ cup chopped green onions
• 1 tablespoon tamari, shoyu or soy sauce*
• Recommended garnishes: chopped fresh cilantro and red pepper flakes
