It’s a

breakfast worth waking up for

if you ask me and it always puts a big smile on my face when I eat it. It really does.

I first tried raw porridge on a yoga retreat in Greece, many moons ago. I was smitten
from my first spoon full. Since then, I’ve seen lots of recipes where the oats are
soaked in almond milk, but I was keen to do something nut-free and to recreate
the flavors of that yoga holiday. A recent trip to Portugal – where a similar version
of this porridge was served – gave me the opportunity to speak to the chef and
get the low down and how it was put together. He revealed that the secret ingredient,
wait for it… is apple juice. HA! Who’d have thought? Well, frankly I’m no good at
keeping secrets and am letting the cat out of the bag, just for you ;)
