Degué | FoodieAtlas

Ingredients

1 cup millet or couscous
2 cups water
1 cup yogurt (plain or Greek)
1/4 cup honey or sugar (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Fresh fruits or nuts for garnish (e.g., berries, almonds, raisins)

Instructions

Prepare the Millet/Couscous

In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil.

Add the millet or couscous to the boiling water. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the grains are tender and the water is absorbed (about 15 minutes for couscous or 20-25 minutes for millet).

Cool the Grains

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the grains cool slightly.

Mix with Yogurt

In a large bowl, combine the cooked millet or couscous with the yogurt.

Stir in honey or sugar to sweeten, and add cinnamon and vanilla extract if using.

Chill

Refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld and the texture firm up.

Serve

Spoon the degué into serving bowls.

Garnish with fresh fruits or nuts as desired.
