Porridge in Electric Rice Cooker UGH!!

Thread Starter: suzanne25    Started: Tue 30 Aug 2005    Replies: 4

Someone told me a rice cooker does lovely porridge, what am I doing wrong? I put it in with the milk and water and when I looked after having a shower it almost completely covered the worktop (and took me about 15 Mins to clean it up)do I leave the lid off I daren't try it again

I hit the enter button to start a new paragragh and the post sent before I had finished.

For a change you could use 2 cups of apple juice and 3/4 of a cup of water plus a couple of handfuls of dried fruit and cook as above. Smile

Firstly spray the inside of the rice cooker with oil then add 1 cup plus an extra 1/3 of a cup of raw oats ( not quick cooking oats) with this also add 2 and 3/4 of a cup of water and salt to taste.Cover and cook for 20 or untill the cooker switches off automatically.Half way through the cooking period stir the porridge.Allow to stand for 10 min's before opening.Hope this works for you suzanne25.
