the best recipe for porridge.?

Answer 1

Porridge Oats (Get 'Scots' brand), just add water or follow recipe on Scots box for excellent Scottish porridge. In Scotland we eat it with salt

Answer 2

1 measure of medium cut oatmeal mixed in a pan with 1 measure cold water. Add 2 measures boiling water and 1 teaspoon salt, stirring all the time with a whisk. Bring to boil then turn heat down and cook - stirring occasionally - for 8 minutes. Serve with a separate cup of creamy milk (equal milk & single cream). Take a spoonfull of porridge and dip it into the milk before eating. Delicious! The milk stays nice and cold if served this way.
Or you can soak the oatmeal in 3 measures of cold water, leave overnight, in the morning add the salt and cook for 3 minutes.

Doesn't matter what the measure is as long as it's the same for all. Salt can be adjusted to taste.
This is the traditional Scottish way. Though a lot of people prefer to sprinkle their porridge with sugar or syrup before eating. Yuk!

Answer 4

You need Whites Speedicook (made in Northern Ireland), simmer about 3 cups water in a saucepan with bit of salt then add about 1 cup of the oats and gently cook for about 4-5 minutes. If you think it is getting too thick add a bit more boiling water.

Pour into a bowl and let cool few minutes then serve.

I like salt on it, the kids love honey, some people add jam ... and of course, plenty ice cold milk!

That is my supper snack.

Answer 6

Note you can replace the scottish or irish oats with regular oats but the texture will be different from the real thing..walmart sells irish oatmeal in the cereal aisle


Cranachan - V

100g (4oz) Scottish Oatmeal
500ml (1 pint) Whipping Cream
250g (8oz) Raspberries
Caster Sugar to taste
1 tblsp Whisky (optional)

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F, Gas 4)

Toast oatmeal in oven for 10-15 minutes until lightly browned. Whip cream and sugar until stiff (add whisky if using). Place in layers in individual glasses, starting with the fruit and finishing with cream. Decorate with fruit. Chill and serve

The cut grain of steel-cut oats means they take longer to cook than rolled oats - but the distinctive texture makes it all worthwhile! As an added treat, toss in some raisins, chopped dates or other dried or fresh fruits and nuts just before serving.


Oatmeal Porridge

3 cups water
Pinch of salt
1 cup steel-cut oats (also called Irish oatmeal and Scotch oats)
Bring water and salt to a boil in medium saucepan. Stir in oats and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until the grains have absorbed most of the water. Remove from heat and serve immediately, or if a thicker texture is desired, cover saucepan and let sit for a few minutes.
Serving suggestion: Sweeten with a desired sweetner such as raw suger, granulated sugar, brown sugar or honey and drizzle with a small amount of milk, half-and-half or heavy cream.
Makes 3 to 4 servings.

Cook's Note: To toast steel-cut oats, place them in a preheated 300*F (150*C) oven for approximately 20 minutes. Cool and place any unused portion in a tightly covered container, storing in a cool place. Toasted oats cook in half the time.
