I found the porridge a few years ago, watching the movie "The Secret Garden" (based on the book) , and I've always been doubt as to what could be so clear that mush appreciated by the British (I was still "baby", I could not use the internet ...) . Later I found that it is a simple and ultra-healthy breakfast, or oatmeal (but there are many variants) boiled in water or milk.
Yesterday morning, as the dispensation of the house lately has also provided the basic ingredients of this dish, I decided to try to prepare the porridge true, that simple-so simple beloved by the Scots.
The result was a creamy sauce and hot filling, neither sweet nor salty taste, typical of Anglo-Saxon kitchen (just think of the Digestive Tract, with their delicious taste: D)
Here I propose to you the recipe I found on the BBC website, I have tried both the version with the milk, is the one with the water, and can say that both are excellent (one of the photos has been prepared with water) ...
porridge
Ingredients: 50 g of oatmeal, 350 ml of water (or milk or a mixture of both), a pinch of salt ;
Preparation: In a saucepan, pour the oatmeal, water and salt and mix well; Put on the heat and simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally and making sure that everything does not stick at the bottom of the pot. After cooking, the water must have been almost completely absorbed should be tender and flakes (though I like not too mushy). Pour the porridge into a bowl or a plate, let cool for a couple of minutes and enjoy it with a spoonful of yogurt and a little 'honey (or even natural, or with pieces fresh or dried fruit, sweetened with maple syrup, etc).
