Directions

Prep 40 minCook 5 min

    Place the oats in a pan with the milk, 1 1/4 cups water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer gently, stirring frequently, for 4-5 minutes until thick, creamy, and thoroughly cooked.

    Ladle porridge into warm serving bowls, then top with a spoonful of date purée and sprinkle with the roughly chopped pistachio nuts. Serve immediately.
