To cook the millet, rinse the dry millet in a fine-mesh strainer under warm running water. Place the rinsed millet, water, and sea salt into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 30 minutes.

To make the patties, place the carrots, chopped green onions, parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, and sea salt in a food processor and pulse a few times. Add the cooked millet and continue to pulse until just mixed.

Form the millet mixture into patties. Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and lightly sauté on both sides.
