Curried Millet Stir Fry with Kohlrabi
This curried millet stir fry is a great alternative to fried rice. For this recipe, I am using kohlrabi and kohlrabi greens. You can substitute the greens with spinach, swiss chard, collard greens or even broccoli.

Instructions

Heat the oil in a large sauté pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the curry powder and stir to dissolve it in the oil. Stir in the onions and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the onions start to soften. Add the minced garlic, sliced chiles and salt and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until the garlic starts to turn fragrant.
