Mix oats, non dairy creamer, the sweetener tablet and dried fruit (if you are + using any). +#. Add 300ml freshly boiled water. +#. Microwave at full power. The porridge will tend to rise when the water + starts to boil, so use a tall container. Turn it off before it overflows. +#. Add seeds, nuts and or fresh fruit. + +Explanation +----------- + +The point of the non dairy creamer is to produce a slightly creamier texture +than would otherwise result. Using milk instead of water and creamer also works, +but milk can't be boiled quickly in a kettle. Using oat flour instead of +creamer produces a slightly different, but also agreeable texture. + +The dried berries are added before microwaving to give them time to rehydrate. The +nuts, seeds and fresh fruit is only added afterwards. The nuts and seeds are +nicer when crunchy and the fresh fruit will become too soft when microwaved. I +like a handful of sunflour seeds and a sliced banana. If I want dried berries, +I like goji or cranberries, preferably unsweetened. + +Turn on the kettle first, then wheigh out the remaining ingredients. While the +porridge is in the microwave, tidy away the remaining ingredients. With a bit +of practice, the whole process can be done in under 4 minutes. -- 2.44.0
