Ingredients
500 g (=1.1 lb) pumpkin
200 g (=1 cup) millet
2 eggs
50 g (=3.5 tbsp) butter
500 ml (=2 cups) milk
cheese (optional)
honey
salt

Directions
Peel pumpkin, remove seeds and cut into 2 cm (app. 1 inch) chunks.
Preheat a pan (or a casserole dish). Simmer pumpkin in butter over medium heat for about 20 minutes until it starts getting tender.
Wash millet in warm water. Finally pour hot water over it to prevent millet from getting bitter.
Bring 400 ml (app. 2 cups) water to boil, add some salt and simmer millet for about 10 minutes until half-ready. Skim off any scum that may form.
Pour milk over the pumpkin, boil shortly, add millet and mix. Season with salt to taste.
Preheat oven to 130C/270F, cover and bake for about half an hour.
Beat the eggs and stir in the pumpkin-millet-mixture. Top with grated cheese and bake at app. 200C/390F for another 10 minutes until cheese is light brown.
Arrange pumpkin-millet-gratin on serving plates, sprinkle with honey to taste. Melted butter can be served as a sauce separately.
