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.
