Method

1. 01

   Rinse teff grain under cold water using a fine mesh strainer.

2. 02

   Combine teff with 1 cup of water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 15–20 minutes, stirring often, until thick and porridge-like.

3. 03

   Hull and quarter fresh strawberries, then cook gently in a small pan over low heat for 3–4 minutes until soft.

4. 04

   Blend cooked strawberries into a smooth puree and stir into the cooked teff. Add water if needed to thin. Serve warm.

How to offer

Serve warm. Teff has a mild, slightly earthy flavour that pairs well with sweet strawberry.
