{{RecipeIngredients<br />
| 250ml water<br />
| 35g medium [[Oatmeal|oatmeal]]<br />
| [[Salt]] to taste - you only need a little<br />
}}<br />
===Method===<br />
<br />
{{RecipeMethod<br />
| Bring the water to the [[Boil|boil]] in a non-stick saucepan.<br />
| Add the [[Porridge|porridge]] in a steady trickle whilst stirring vigorously - there should be no lumps.<br />
| Reduce the heat, cover and gently [[Simmer|simmer]] for about 15 minutes.<br />
| Stir in the [[Salt|salt]], cover and [[Simmer|simmer]] for a further 5 minutes or so.<br />
| You will know when it is done as the [[Oatmeal|oatmeal]] will have absorbed the water to such an extent that it has a crater appearance when [[Simmer|simmer]].<br />
}}<br />
===Serving suggestions===<br />
I love this with a generous pouring of cold [[Milk|milk]].<br />
===Variations===<br />
Add a little [[Sugar|sugar]] if you wish, but do not omit the [[Salt|salt]].<br />
