Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to cook herculean porridge with milk? Prepare all the necessary products. Examine the packaging from hercules with the indication of the cooking time. Milk can be any percentage of fat content to your taste. In addition, in addition to regular milk of animal origin, vegetable milk can also be used. The amount of sugar and salt to your taste.
Step 2:
Prepare a saucepan with a thick bottom. In such a dish, you need to cook milk porridges so that they do not burn. Pour milk and water into a saucepan. A little water allows you to preserve the fat content of milk, since some liquid evaporates during the cooking process.
Step 3:
Over medium heat, stirring constantly so as not to burn, bring the milk to a boil.
Step 4:
Pour the hercules in small portions and stir constantly so that the flakes are evenly distributed and do not settle to the bottom.
Step 5:
Add a pinch of salt, stir. If you are making a sweet porridge, add sugar.
Step 6:
Cook the porridge over medium heat for 5-20 minutes. The exact time depends on the type of oat flakes, see the packaging. If it seems to you that the porridge is too liquid, do not rush to add flakes. After evaporation, the herculean porridge will become a little thicker.
Step 7:
When the porridge is ready, add butter to the pan. Stir so that the melted butter spreads evenly over the porridge. Remove the pan from the heat, cover with a lid and let it evaporate for 10-15 minutes.
This porridge turns out to be medium in density. If you like a more liquid porridge, add more milk or water than indicated in the recipe.
Serve warm porridge with honey, dried fruits, nuts or berries. I love unsweetened oatmeal porridge, it is tasty and healthy and without additives.
Herculean porridge with milk is better to cook immediately before use, and not to warm up.
Instead of sugar, you can use a sweetener that is not afraid of heat treatment.
For cooking, it is better to use filtered or bottled water that is neutral to taste. If you use tap water, keep in mind that it can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste.
