Ingredients
- 1/2cup uncooked long- or short-grain brown rice, rinsed
- 1/2cup uncooked oatmeal, rinsed in a strainer
- 3cups cups almond milk or coconutplus more for serving
- 1/4teaspoon cardamom powder
- 1/4teaspoon fine sea salt
- 3cups cold water
- 1 to 4 tablesppons granulated or turbinado sugar, honey, lemon curd or marmalade
- fresh seasonal fruit, such as figs, berries, or sliced stone fruits
- almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, or pecans, toasted
Instructions
- Dump the rice, oatmeal, milk, cardamom, salt, water, and sugar in a large saucepan set over medium heat and stir to combine. Let the ingredients warm until the liquid starts to bubble around the edges of the pan. Reduce the heat as necessary to maintain a very gentle simmer and cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan frequently so the grains don’t stick, until the rice is broken down and the porridge has a soupy consistency, 60 minutes. You want to be careful to not let the porridge boil.
- Spoon the porridge into bowls and, if desired, stir in some sugar or top with curd, fruit, nuts, and/or a splash more milk. (You can cover and refrigerate any leftover porridge for up to several days and serve cold or warm gently in a small saucepan, covered, over low heat. You may need to add a splash of water or milk as the porridge thickens when cold.
