Useful Tips

• The most important thing in this dish is millet. When buying it, pay attention to the color, brighter and yellow in quality is better.

• Millet can be supplemented with fruits or berries to your taste.
• Serve this dish with sour cream, melted butter, condensed milk with sugar, etc.
• Vanilla or vanilla sugar can be added for flavor.
• It is better to take homemade milk, there is more fat content, and if it stays a little, then collect cream from above that can be added to milk during baking. Ideally, of course, it is better to take baked milk 4%.
• You can not watch the preparation of millet - due to the fact that the dish is heated gradually, milk does not run away.
• It is important not to dry the millet so that it stays a little wet. Although you can regulate this process independently. If there is more milk, then porridge with dried fruits will turn out, if less, a casserole that can be cut.
• It is advisable to take a baking dish ceramic or glass, but you can use the usual non-stick coating. It is better to choose a form with high sides, since when the milk is heated, the cap rises, and it can easily escape. Ceramic pots can also be used for baking.
