RECIPE : turmeric apple porridge

my epic love story with turmeric continues. here’s a breakfast or quick and easy lunch idea for you – turmeric apple porridge with the trimmings !
i like cooking my porridge with a lot of water to make it runnier. that way it’s super easy on my tummy, and i don’t need any plant milk to go with it. think more like gruel (although that’s an incredibly unsexy name).

you can’t actually taste the turmeric, so go ahead and add it for the DNA protective curcumin (the yellow pigment in turmeric, with crazy health-promoting skills). plus, the colour isn’t half bad, is it ? add whatever fruits and berries you want, and you’ve got a breakfast – or lunch – of champions.

turmeric apple porridge
serves 175 ml / 0.3 cups of oats
250 ml / 1 cup of water
1/2 apple, diced
a handful of raisins
a dash of turmeric
1/2 banana, sliced
a handful of raspberries (or whatever berries you like)
a dash of cinnamon

– add oats and water to a pot and bring to a boil
– reduce the heat, add raisins, apple dices and turmeric, and let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes, until the oats have sort of collapsed a little
– top with banana slices, raspberries and cinnamon. enjoy !

p.s. this portion is sort of on the lighter side. add more oats and use a whole banana for a more filling meal.
