    Aldi do 'instant oat' sachets - add measured amount of milk and bung in microwave for two minutes. they cost 99pence for 10 sachets and they are quite Oaty, not so fine as Reddybrek.
  • I put 1 part oats to 2 parts soya milk and microwave for 2 min in a glass measuring jug,stir and microwave for another min (6.40am), put it in a lidded container take it to work and microwave it at 08.30 for another min. Lovely creamy porridge. I also add 1 teaspoon of malt extract and one of honey plus a few chopped dates. My fave breakfast.
    I am playing all of the right notes just not necessarily in the right order :D.
  • I don't have a microwave but it's 1 of big chunky organic oats, 2 of milk or water, and onto the hob - stir until cooked and then fresh cream with rasp jam [homegrown and made]. Flippin fantastic.
    If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.

    If it helps ..... I can't make a white sauce :o

    I'm a reasonably apt cook but I just can't do this ..... I've read recipes & been shown loads of times (BFF is a qualified chef & has shown me & just can't believe what a mess I get in:rotfl:) - it just defeats me!


    ...

    I couldn't make white sauce either, until someone linked me to this recipe. Even I can do it perfectly every time now, so Do1mio probably hate me :D


    Brownies, on the other hand :o:o
    They call me Dr Worm... I'm interested in things; I'm not a real doctor but I am a real worm. :grin:
  • Do you use approved foods?
