Ingredients

  • 1 TBSP Coconut Oil
  • 1 CUP Chopped Fennel bulb
  • 1 CUP Chopped Carrots
  • 1 CUP Chopped Celery
  • 6 CUPS Vegetable Broth
  • 1 CUP Coixseed
  • 1 can Coconut milk optional if you want low fat

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil over medium heat. Add the fennel, carrots, celery and sauté until the fennel is tender and almost transparent. Pour in the broth and add the coixseed and stir. Bring to the bowl, then reduce the heat to low.
  2. Cover and simmer until the Job's tears are tender, about 50 minutes.
  3. Stir in coconut milk.
  4. Season with any salt, pepper, paprika, berbere spice or a pinch of cayenne your senses may delight in!

Recipe Notes

You can use any nut milk you choose.
I think adding sautéed mushrooms at the end would be heavenly.
You could serve this over steamed veggies, any other grain you like or serve on its own.
Because it is so thick, it substitutes well as a gravy over roasted sweet potato slices or fries.
