Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 c Millet
6 c Water
1 1/2 ts Salt
4 c Diced turnips

Wash millet and drain with a fine mesh strainer until
water comes clean. Place millet in a heavy pot and add
cooking water. Let soak 4-8 hours or overnight before
cooking.

Add salt and diced turnips. Bring to a boil, place
heat deflector under the pot, then simmer over low
flame for 45-50 minutes. For a creamier texture, allow
millet to sit in the pot 10 minutes before uncovering.
Mash with a potato masher; if necessary, add a cup of
water while mashing to make a mashed potato
consistency. Transfer to a serving bowl and cover.
Serve with an ice cream scoop and top with gravy.
