Prepare the dough. Heat the milk to 35-40°C, pour oil into it and add salt, mix thoroughly. Gradually add the sifted flour to the milk mixture, stirring constantly.
Dust your work surface with flour and remove the dough from the bowl. Knead the dough until it stops sticking to your hands and becomes smooth and uniform. Place the dough under film for 30 minutes.
Prepare the millet for cooking. To do this, sort out the cereal (if it is not of the highest grade) and rinse in cold water 5-6 times until the water becomes completely clear. Pour boiling water over the millet for 5 minutes, drain the water and repeat the process one more time. This is necessary to get rid of possible bitterness and not spoil the taste of the finished porridge.
Place the prepared millet in a saucepan with a thick bottom, pour in two cups of boiling water (you may need a little more or less), the water should cover the grain by 1 cm from above. Place the pan over low heat and cook the porridge for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Heat the milk. Pour it into the porridge (15 minutes after it boils). Add butter, a couple of pinches of salt and sugar. Mix everything thoroughly. Continuing to stir constantly, cook the porridge for another 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit.
Divide the dough into 20 equal parts, roll them into balls and put them under film. Take out the koloboks one at a time and roll them into round cakes, 1 mm thick.
Fry the flatbreads in a frying pan without oil on both sides until cooked. The dough should completely change color, and rosy spots will appear in some places. Place the finished flatbreads in a heap on a plate and cover with a towel.
Spread the filling evenly onto one half of the finished flatbread, 5-7 mm thick, and cover with the other half of the flatbread. Grease each kystyby with melted butter. Serve on a large platter, heaping the tortillas.
