This oatmeal is perfectly cooked and not snotty. Do not deviate from the instructions. Stirring too much, or leaving on the heat for too long will be detrimental to oatmeal texture.
1 part Rolled Oats
a wee bit of salt
a generous sprinkle of cinnamon
a grating of nutmeg
a pinch of cardamom
a handful of raisins
a handful of cashews
a slurp of maple syrup
2 parts Water
hemp oil/flax oil to garnish
Directions:
1. Put the first 8 ingredients into a pot and turn on medium high. This is 8 on my stove.
2. Add the water before the ingredients burn. (this takes some practise…) Don’t stir.
3. Bring to an uncomfortably rolling boil, then immediately stir it about three times around, put a lid on it and remove from the burner. If you stir it more, it will have a greater chance of snotification. Ew.
4. Wait until you are really, really hungry. Open the pot and see if the oats sucked up all the water. If they have, stir it up and pour it into a bowl. If it hasn’t, you should have started your oatmeal before you got so hungry.
5. Top with oil and chow down… well, say a word of gratitude first, you’ll digest better.
