Beignets de Mil
Yeast-raised millet-and-wheat fritters with rice porridge.

About Beignets de Mil
Oumy presents these millet beignets, or froufrou, as a Malian street-food sweet. Millet and wheat flours join rice porridge and baker’s yeast in the batter.
Sugar sweetens the mixture, with a little salt in the base. The rice porridge remains a named part of the batter, alongside the cereal flours.
The source describes an airy, soft interior inside a lightly crisp coating. The fritters are served warm, either plain or with an optional soup accompaniment.
