Ingredients

- Fonio — to buy150 g
- Milk — to buy500 ml
- Sugar — to buy3 tbsp

- Water — to buy200 ml
Preparation
Quickly rinse the fonio in a fine sieve under cold water.
Bring the water to a boil in a pot, add the fonio in a steady rain while stirring, cover, and cook for 5 minutes over low heat until it swells and absorbs the water.
Pour in the milk, add the sugar and cinnamon, and mix well.
Cook over low heat for 12 minutes, stirring frequently, until you get a smooth, slightly thick porridge.
If the porridge is too thick, thin it with a little warm milk to adjust the texture.
Serve warm in bowls, with a little extra sugar at the table if you like.
