Preparation

Kitchen utensils

2 Pots, 1 Bowl, 1 Salad spinner, 1 Knife, 1 Cutting board

Preparation steps

1.

Bring millet to the boil with twice the amount of water. Let it boil at low heat for about 15 minutes until all the liquid has been absorbed.

2.

In the meantime, put the peas in a pot with very little water and cook over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Then drain them, rinse with cold water and let them drip off. Mix lemon juice, tahini, pumpkin seed oil, salt and pepper to a dressing. Add some water if necessary.

3.

Wash the spinach and spin dry. Chop the almond kernels. Loosen millet and mix with peas, dressing and spinach. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve sprinkled with chopped almond kernels and cress.
