Step 1

Wash & Soak
Rinse Browntop Millet thoroughly 2–3 times in clean water to remove any dust or impurities. Soak it in sufficient water for 6–8 hours, which helps soften the grains, improves digestibility, and reduces overall cooking time while enhancing nutrient absorption.

Step 2

Cook & Serve
Drain the soaked Browntop Millet completely and transfer it to a cooking vessel. Add 2½ cups of water for every 1 cup of millet and cook until the grains turn soft and fluffy. You can pressure cook it for 2–3 whistles or simmer in an open pot on medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Once cooked, allow it to rest for a few minutes, then fluff gently with a fork. Serve hot as a healthy rice alternative or use it in your favorite traditional and modern recipes such as khichdi, pulao, or upma.
