    How to do porridge in the microwave without some sort of oat volcano erupting in the bowl and making a massive mess?

    I used standard rolled oats (not the instant / sachet oats which have loads of weird shit added to them) and microwaved on full for about 2 mins, stirred, 90 secs, stirred, bit longer, stirred etc)

    I normally do it on the hob at home but am gonna try to have porridge at work too now.

  • Put a banana in it. But the simple answer is you have to watch it.
    Also use boiling water straight from kettle, fill to just enough to make the oats float, pinch of salt. Stir. Leave for 30seconds. Add some milk. Stir. Put in microwave at 1min at full. Stir and repeat till perfect for you.

  • Nice pro tipz! Thanks dude. I like the idea of the banana as a calming agent.

    Will also start off with some boiling water, at the moment i do about 50/50 cold milk and cold water.

    Think I'll heat it on a lower power for longer too rather than just nuking it. And watch it like a hawk of course.
