Ingredients

2 cups (16 fl oz/480 ml) whole milk

2 cups (16 fl oz/480 ml) water

1 cup (6 oz/170 g) Irish steel-cut oats

a pinch salt ((1/16 of a teaspoon) )

cream

brown sugar

Instructions

Step 1

In a medium heavy bottomed saucepan, combine the milk, water, oats and salt.

Step 2

Place on a lid and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.

Step 3

Lower the heat to low and cook, stirring frequently and gently, until thickened and the oats are tender, about 55-60 minutes.

Step 4

Divide into bowls and serve immediately, with a drizzle of cream and a sprinkle of brown sugar on top.

Step 5

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, add a splash of milk or water and microwave briefly or warm over the stove.
