Instructions

  1. In a small pot, toast teff over medium-high heat until it begins to pop and smells nutty, stirring often – about 3 minutes.
  2. Once you hear its adorable popping, add water slowly along with spices and salt.
  3. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. Give a quick stir. If it seems too thick, add a bit more water to get to your desired consistency. Cook a couple more minutes.
  4. Divide among 2 bowls and top with sliced figs, walnuts and a generous drizzle of honey.
