have burnt the stuff to the pan this morning, have left it to soak in hot soapy water, but has anyone any other ideas for getting the stuff off.

leave it to soak with washing powder and water...and do your porridge in the microwave in future

i do usually, but couldn't be arsed doing all different bowls for everyone so thought i'd do it in a pan. never again. back on shreddies tomorrow.

Just do a big jug of milk in the micro then do the individual bowls. You just have to stop it half way through and give it a stir (unless you like skin on it :-X)

water with a teaspoon of washing up liquid, simmer it in the sticky pan - it will simmer quickly so watch it! Soak a bit more if you need but this usually works. I make porridge in the microwave now

If you don't like fadding with individual bowls for micro porridge why don't you nuke it (technical term) in one big mixing bowl and divvy out at the table. :-/ Porridge and pans don't mix

I like mine made with water and it seems easier to wash off than when the kids have porridge with milk (eugh!)

Thats not a bad idea either math, thanks. we have technical tems like nuke here too, like flipflop(remote control), blower(hairdryer) and basil (brush). weird.

I heard once that if you leave a pan upside down on grass overnight all the burned bits will come off easily. Not sure if this works.
