Porridge

As you may have noticed from my June What Kim Ate round-up my day normally starts with porridge.

Thomas makes a lovely porridge with currants, dried apricots, almonds and sunflower seeds. The nuts and seeds are a good source of Vitamin E.

Ingredients:
(for two people)

• 1 cup of whole oats
• 2.5 cups of water
• 4 dried apricots
• 6 almonds
• handful of currants
• A dessertspoon of sunflower seeds

Mix all ingredients together in a saucepan. Bring to boil and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Stir and Serve.

I don’t put any milk or sugar on it as it’s nice just the way it is. Thomas likes to add a teaspoon of jam to his.
