    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.

  • I haven't done this but just thinking it through...
    are you able to have the mix pre-soaked in a tub/jar overnight?
    You'd be able to cook it less, coz thats when you get an oat volcano.
    I'm thinking something like 1 min max power, stir, 1 min med, stir, 30 secs max.

  • Ideally i would soak overnight, which i do if I'm having brekkie at home, but just way too much faff at work what with storage etc.... Nice idea though, keep em coming!
