Steps:

• In a dry skillet, toast millet over medium-low heat, tossing constantly, until fragrant and slightly golden-brown. Let cool completely.
• Grind the toasted and cooled millet in either a clean coffee grinder, a mortar and pestle, or a food processor (make sure to use short pulses so as not to end up with a paste). Or you can put the grains in a plastic or paper bag, and crush them with a rolling pin until finely ground.
• In a medium saucepan, bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil. Add ground millet, grated coconut, if using, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom. Immediately reduce heat to low and cover.
• Simmer for 15 minutes or until cereal is tender, checking halfway through cooking to make sure water has not all been absorbed. (If it has, add another tablespoon or two of water.)
