Ingredients

200g/1 cup millet
600ml/3 cups milk you can used any milk you like-soy, almond, coconut
2 tbsp brown sugar or more to taste
a pinch of salt
4 plums
2 tbsp water
2 tsp honey
2 tsp chia seeds optional
2 tbsp chopped nuts walnuts, almonds or your choice

Instructions

In a medium pot combine millet, milk, sugar and salt and bring to a boil.
Turn the heat down to a low and simmer for 15 minutes stirring once in a while until the grain is tender. Check on your porridge half-way through to make sure it hasn't gone dry and add a splash of milk or water if needed to keep it loose and creamy.
Meanwhile remove the stones from the plums and slice them thickly. Then put them in a small saucepan with water and honey, cook over medium heat while stirring for 5-7 minutes until they are softened but still hold their shape and the liquid turned into a glaze.
Serve the millet porridge topped with honey glazed plums and sprinkled with some chia seeds or chopped nuts if desired.
