Traditional Oatmeal
Rude Health's porridge fanatic, Camilla Barnard, competed at the 2009 Golden Spurtle World Porridge-Making Championships. She didn't win, but here's her recipe for traditional oatmeal.
Ingredients:
1 cup traditional medium-ground oatmeal
4 cups cold water
A pinch of sea salt
Method:
1. Pour the oatmeal into a heavy based pan containing the cold water.
2. Bring to the boil gently and stir often, with a spurtle of course!
3. Camilla's magic ingredient is Halen Mon's Vanilla Sea Salt. Add a small pinch once the water has boiled to transform this traditional oatmeal recipe into an irresistibly sublime bowl of porridge.
4. Once boiled, reduce the heat to a simmer and continue to cook for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the porridge is thick and creamy, stirring constantly.
