Fonio

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 cup uncooked fonio (such as Yolélé)
• 2 cups tap water
• 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps

1. Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the fonio, and cook, stirring constantly, until the fonio is lightly golden and gives off a nutty aroma, about 3 minutes. Add the water and salt; cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the liquid is absorbed, 4 to 5 minutes.
