Inspired by congee, this recipes swaps rice for millet, which is naturally gluten-free and high in fibre, protein and antioxidants, making it a great ingredient to start your day with. The porridge itself is very mild in flavour, so the teriyaki tofu, tangy pickled onions and spicy sriracha make for great flavourful toppings.
