Eve from The Garden of Eating hosts the Comfort Food Cook-Off. I call more than one dish comfort food, for example this, this or this.
Today I was in the mood for
The perfect porridge
The velvety texture and the chewy oats made me feel like heaven! It is quick and easy to prepare, I always have all the necessary ingredients on hand.

Directions
1. Put the oats in a saucepan, pour in the milk or water and sprinkle in a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil and simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring from time to time and watching carefully that it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan. Or you can try this in a microwave. Mix the oats, milk or water and a pinch of salt in a large microwaveproof bowl, then microwave on High for 5 minutes, stirring halfway through. Leave to stand for 2 minutes before eating.
2. To serve. Pour into bowls, spoon yogurt on top and drizzle with honey.
Making it easy
If you don’t want to bother getting the scales out in the morning, you’ll need 1 mug of oats and 2¼ mugs of liquid. (Any mug will do, as long as you use the same for both measurements)

Love it
I love this idea of eating porridge (we call it oatmeal here) with Greek yogurt. Just sounds delicious!
