Description

This comforting Sauteed Soup brings together the earthy richness of sauteed vegetables and the wholesome texture of millet. Inspired by Japanese home-style cooking, this dish features a savory broth infused with fennel seeds, carrots, and cauliflower. The initial sauteing step deepens the flavor profile, creating a robust base that stands up to the delicate grains. Perfect for chilly evenings, this vegan-friendly meal is simple to prepare using pantry staples. It serves as an excellent option for meal prep, offering a balanced combination of fiber and nutrients. The subtle sweetness of the root vegetables complements the aromatic spices, resulting in a warm, satisfying bowl that feels both rustic and refined. Enjoy it as a light lunch or a substantial dinner alongside simple bread.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a pressure cooker or large pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the diced onion, chopped fennel, cauliflower, carrots, and fennel seeds.
  3. Sauté the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until they begin to soften and seal in their flavors.
  4. Stir in the rinsed millet and cook for 2 minutes to toast the grains slightly.
  5. Pour in the water or vegetable broth and add the sea salt. Stir to combine.
  6. If using a pressure cooker, seal the lid and bring to pressure. Cook for 10-12 minutes.
  7. If using a pot, cover and simmer on low heat for 20-25 minutes until the millet is tender and liquid is absorbed.
  8. Release pressure naturally or carefully open the lid. Let the soup rest for 5 minutes to thicken before serving.
