Pour the mixture into a medium-sized pot and add the milk, sugar, Hinds Cinnamon, vanilla essence, butter and a pinch of salt. Stir continuously until smooth. Reduce the heat, cover the pot with a lid and simmer on low for 25 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to stop lumps from forming. Add more boiling water a little at a time if needed.
- Spoon the porridge into bowls and top with oranges slices. Add a pinch of Hinds Cinnamon.
