ingredients原料
Foxtail, Little or Kodo Millet½ padi粟米/小米/鴨乸草
Water1¼ padi淨水

Foxtail, Little or Kodo Millet (any one of these) - ½ padi 粟米/小米/鴨乸草(任選一樣) Clean the millet by pounding and winnowing. 舂搗篩揚小米。

Water - 1¼ padi 淨水 Take a 2 padi water capacity vessel and boil 1¼ padi of water in it. Add the cleaned millet to the boiling water and stir. Close it with a lid. Check if the millet is ¾th cooked; then remove from the firewood stove and mix it well. 用一個能裝2 padi 的容器盛1¼ padi 水,煮沸。加入乾淨小 米,攪拌。蓋上鍋蓋。當米¾分熟時,從爐灶上取下並攪 拌均勻。

Now keep the millet covered on live coal (from burnt firewood) for 5 minutes. It can then be served. 把蓋上蓋的小米飯在(燃木而成的)活性炭上燜5分鐘。 隨後即可盛用。

Amongst these, whole unhusked little millet can also be boiled, then made into rice and cooked, just as rice prepared from boiled paddy. 粟米類中,未脫殼的小米,也可以煮後製成半熟米再行烹 製,就像可以用煮稻穀的方式製蒸穀米一樣。
