Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for around 15 - 20 minutes. The grain should have absorbed all the water and be tender. In soups and stews : Add teff grain for the last 15 minutes of soup cooking. If making stew, add the grain at the beginning and allow to simmer with the other ingredients. In porridge : Use one cup of teff per person. Optionally, toast the grains in a hot pan for 3-4 minutes. This enhances the flavour of the teff. Boil in a pan of hot water (3 cups of water to 1 cup of teff) for around 10-15 minutes. Turn the heat down. The teff will be ready when the water is absorbed and the grain is of a soft consistency. Serve. Teff can be served as a breakfast porridge with honey and fruit, or as a savoury alternative to rice or couscous
