Method
Preparation
Rinse the Fonio
Place the fonio in a fine mesh sieve and rinse it under cold running water to remove any impurities. This step ensures a cleaner taste and texture.
Cooking
Combine Ingredients
In a medium pot, combine the rinsed fonio, water, and salt. Stir to mix the ingredients well.
Bring to a Boil
Place the pot on the stove over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
Simmer
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 10-12 minutes until the fonio has absorbed all the water.
