Notes

  • For extra flavour, add a drop of vanilla extract. It adds a lovely warmth to the microwave porridge.
  • Make sure you use a big enough bowl so the porridge doesn't make a mess of your microwave. 
  • Make sure it is a microwave safe bowl too.
  • You can use water instead of milk, but it will change the flavour.
