Porridge

Porridge is a great way to start a cold winter morning. Oats are available at any large supermarket.

Ingredients

• Porridge oats (may just be labeled as oats) - about 3/4 cup per person
• Milk
• Optional: Banana, jam, chocolate spread

Cooking

Add the porridge oats to a pan. Add milk to the required consistency. Bring to a near boil, and then simmer for about 5 minutes.

Try adding pieces of banana when cooking to give a great alternative flavour. Smaller chunks dissolve, larger chunks do not. Also stir in a spoonful of jam or chocolate spread once in the serving bowl. Kids love jams, chocolate spread and banana added to the porridge.
