Directions

Preheat a pot over medium heat. Saute the garlic in the oil for about 30 seconds. Add the tarragon, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and salt, and mix for a few seconds. Add the millet and stir constantly for about 3 minutes to toast it. It should turn a shade darker.
Add the vegetable broth and cover; bring to a boil. Once the mixture is boiling, lower the heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 10 minutes.
Mix in the chopped broccoli, cover, and cook for about more minutes. Uncover and cook for another 10 minutes, stirring often. Once the water is mostly absorbed, turn off the heat but leave the pot on the stove, covered to continue to cook for another 10 - 15 minutes. At that point, all of the water should be absorbed and the millet should be mushy if you push down on it with a spoon. You are looking for a polenta-like consistency.
Transfer to a mixing bowl and let it cool completely!
Once cooled, tightly form the millet into golf ball size balls. Press them down in your hands to flatten just a bit, then roll the sides between your hands to form tire shaped croquettes.
Heat a thin layer of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook in batches for 3 - 4 minutes on each side. they should be golden brown.
