I have discovered the secret to creamy porridge with no lumps.
Put my economy porridge oats in a food processor and whiz them up until fine like course flour. I then microwave them in a cup with milk until cooked stirring frequently. If you do this last thing at night then reheat in the morning they turn out super smooth and creamy I add honey and sultanas last thing before consuming
Porridge, great scoff, but how do you cook yours?

Groats, fine oats, coarse oats, plenty of water, two minutes in the microwave, leave overnight, microwave again in the morning, add salt

1. Three quarter fill a 1 litre pyrex bowl with Lidl's oats (because they come in a paper packet and I am trying to reduce plastic waste),
2. stir in a handful of chopped dates (or sultanas but are not so good),
3. flood the oats with soya drink,
4. cook for 3.5 minutes on high power in a microwave oven (to reduce washing up and avoid burnt-on concrete nightmares)
5. add a little hot water or tea if too solid and enjoy
