Porridge

  • 380g maize meal (mielie meal)
  • 1 L boiling water
  • 500ml milk
  • 240g brown sugar
  • 1 tsp Hinds Spices Cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence

METHOD

Porridge

  • Using a wooden spoon, combine the boiling water and maize meal in a large jug. 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.
