Perfect Oatmeal Porridge
Oatmeal porridge has been a traditional breakfast food for hundreds of years. On a winter day there it is so warming to have a steaming bowl of porridge with raisins. In the summer I do not cook them just soak; see my recipe below.
I like the old fashioned oats as they have a fuller flavour and are healthier. You can eat this as a raw meal or make it into regular porridge. As they take longer to cook I often soak them over night but you do not have to.
