*How to cook sorghum

Ingredients

Part 1

5 cups swiss chard spinach

½ cup pitted kalamata olives

3 tbsp nutritional yeast

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp garlic powder

3/4 tsp salt

Part 2

1 and ¼ cup cooked sorghum (can use brown rice if you don’t have)

1/2 cup ground marula nuts

1 cup cassava flour (or other gluten free flour)

Other ingredients (optional)

Soy or coconut yoghurt

Preparation 

Preheat your oven to 180C.

Add all ingredients of part 1 into a food processor and blend.

Then transfer the mixture into a large bowl and mix in the ingredients of part 2. Mix together well until you get a nice dough like texture. If it’s too wet add a little bit more flour.

Serve with some soy or coconut yoghurt, or even without! Enjoy!
