About Bouillie de Mil

The SDM report documents this Malian millet-flour porridge as moni. This version selects its flour-pellet preparation, with milk and sugar, from the report’s range of cereal porridges.

Millet gives the porridge its cereal flavour, while milk adds a dairy element and sugar provides sweetness. Lemon juice is an optional addition in this selected version.

Small flour-and-water pellets cook in boiling water to the desired consistency. The report describes the finished porridge as liquid and records it among evening foods, with the millet pellets suspended in the serving.
