For Toddlers

Use 3 tablespoons to 200ml of milk. Add half a teaspoon of sugar or a mashed banana for natural sweetness. A thicker consistency works well for self-feeding toddlers.

💪For recovery

High-Energy Recovery

Use 4 tablespoons to 200ml whole milk. Add one tablespoon of peanut butter after cooking. High energy density in a small, easy-to-digest portion — ideal when appetite is low.

🍓Kids' favourite

With Fresh Fruit

Prepare the classic recipe, then top with sliced banana, strawberries or mango. Drizzle with honey. Adds Vitamin C and makes it even more appealing for children.

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 when forming the paste. It breaks up the flour evenly for a smoother result.

💧

Control consistency

Add more liquid for thinner porridge, more flour for thicker. There is no wrong answer — adjust to your taste.

🕐

Don't overcook

2 minutes on the stove or in the microwave is all it needs. Overcooking can make it too thick — just add a little more water to fix it.
