Cardamom and apricot porridge

This porridge has a certain air of sophistication. I love the fragrance of the cardamom paired with the fruity apricots. Sweet honey brings it all together in perfect harmony.

Serves 1

Ingredients:

Porridge

  • 1/2 cup oats

  • 1/2 cup milk

  • 1/2 cup water

  • 1 tsp honey

  • 5 apricots, chopped

  • 1/4 tsp cardamom

Topping

  • Honey

  • Yoghurt

  • Apricots

  • Mixed seeds

(Notes on substitutions found below the method)

Method:

  1. Mix together the porridge ingredients. On the hob: place them in a saucepan, bring to boil and simmer for 4-5 minutes stirring regularly to make it rich and creamy. In the microwave: place them in a microwave proof bowl, then microwave on high for 1 minute, give it a good stir for 30s minutes. Put back in the microwave for 2-3 minutes stirring regularly to make it rich and creamy.

  2. Top with yoghurt, honey, apricots and seeds.

Notes and substitutions:

  • Oats: I use regular porridge oats, but you can use any type. Just adjust the cooking time.

  • Milk: Any milk works, including soy and nut milks.
