Step 2
Form a smooth paste
Add ½ cup cold water or milk. Stir well — a fork works best — until smooth and lump-free.
Step 3
Add hot liquid
Gradually pour in cold or hot water or milk while stirring to your desired consistency. Serve cold or warm and enjoy.
Step 4 — Optional
Heat & serve hot
Microwave 1–2 min or heat in a sufuria on medium heat for a piping hot bowl.
Chef's tip: For a creamier porridge, use milk instead of water. Use a fork when forming the paste for smoother mixing.
Tips for the Perfect Bowl
Getting it right every time
Temperature matters
Always form the paste with cold water or milk first — this prevents lumps. Then add hot liquid gradually.
Use a fork
A fork mixes better than a spoon, breaking up the flour evenly for a smoother, lump-free result.
Control consistency
Add more liquid for thinner porridge, more flour for a thicker bowl. Adjust to your preference.
Don't overcook
2 minutes on the stove or microwave is all it needs. Too thick? Just add a little more water.
