When it’s ready, mix well & stir in:

  • 1 dessert spoon of maple syrup
  • A tiny pinch of cardamom powder (Beware, it can become overpowering!)
  • an extra splash of milk before serving to loosen the porridge

Optional
Decorate with chopped green pistachios
1 tsp organic rose jam
Tiny sprinkle dry rose petals – ensure the petals are organic and without pesticides?
Grated lime zest for additional zing!
