Step 2
Pour the millet into a deep container and cover with water. Rinse several times, changing the water until it remains clear. You need to wash out all the starch from the grain to remove its bitterness.

Step 3
Rinse the grain, then transfer it to a cauldron, saucepan, or pot with a non-stick bottom. Add salt and sugar. Pour in warm water and boil for about 10 minutes, skimming off the foam that forms—there will be a lot of it.

Step 4
Wash the apples in water, cut them in half, and remove the cores. Rinse again and dice or slice into strips of any size. Alternatively, you can grate the apple flesh on a coarse grater, in which case the apples will be virtually unnoticeable. Add the apple pieces to the container and mix. Simmer for another 3–5 minutes until the fruit pieces become soft.
