Porridge With Apples Recipes

PORRIDGE WITH APPLES

Steps:

• Put the water in a large saucepan and boil.
• When boiling, pour in the porridge and stir for 1-2 minutes.
• At this point you should really turn the heat down while stirring but if your stove does not simmer so well, then just lift the pot away from the heat for a few seconds periodically.
• After a minute, put in the apple slices and continue to stir for a further 30-45 seconds.
• The porridge should be thickening up by this point. If not, keep it on the heat a little longer.
• Take the pot off the heat, cover the porridge and set aside for a couple minutes.
• Serve, with any extras you might have to hand like a bit of brown sugar if you are lucky or some honey drizzled over.
• You could also replace up to half of the water with milk while you are cooking the porridge for a creamier version.

PARTRIDGE WITH APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Truss the partridges, spread with one tablespoon butter each and season with salt and pepper. Place in a roasting pan with just enough water in it to cover the bottom and roast for 30 minutes. Remove to a serving dish and keep warm.
• Meanwhile peel, core and halve the apples. Place them on a buttered baking dish flat side down. Dot with one tablespoon of butter and cook for about 15 minutes, or until just soft. Keep warm.
• Saute the bread in the remaining butter, remove and drain on paper towels. Add the livers to the pan and saute until pink. Remove them to a small bowl and mash them to a paste with salt and pepper. Spread the paste on the bread and keep warm.
• Add the Calvados or whisky to the pan, ignite and shake until the flame goes out. Pour this over the partridges and surround them with the apple halves and watercress.

OATMEAL WITH APPLES

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine apple, apple juice, oats, cinnamon and salt. Bring to a boil; boil for 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat; stir in raisins, honey and vanilla. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.

APPLE OATMEAL

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add apple and brown sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
• Stir in oats, apple cider, milk, cinnamon, and salt and cook, stirring frequently, until oatmeal is creamy and thickened, about 3 minutes.

APPLE & SULTANA PORRIDGE

Steps:

• Put the oats and milk in a small pan and cook, stirring, for 3 mins until almost creamy. Stir in the apples and sultanas, then cook for 2 mins more or until the porridge is thick and creamy and the apples just tender. Ladle into bowls, sprinkle with sugar and eat immediately.

CREAMY PORRIDGE WITH SPICED APPLE & CRANBERRY

Steps:

• Put the apples in a pan with 100ml water and cook gently until almost softened. Turn up the heat. Add the cranberries, mixed spice and 3 tbsp of the caster or granulated sugar and bubble until saucy. You can make this a day before serving.
• Tip the oats, milk, vanilla and remaining sugar into a big saucepan. Bring to the boil, stirring constantly, and simmer for 4-5 mins until creamy. Divide between 6 bowls and top with the warm or cold fruit mixture.

QUINOA PORRIDGE WITH CINNAMON APPLES

Steps:

• Bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender and the water has been absorbed, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the apple, and sprinkle with salt, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Stir in the almonds; cook and stir until the apple is hot and beginning to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the almond milk and half-and-half cream; continue cooking until hot. Stir in the hot quinoa, and cook a few minutes before serving.
