Author: Jemma Andrew-Adiamah
Ingredients
For the porridge
  • 1/2 cup porridge oats
  • 2 tbsp coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp shredded coconut
  • 250 ml water
For the compote
  • 500 g Red Fruit from Iceland frozen
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3-4 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
Instructions
To make the porridge
  1. On a low heat, stir together the porridge oats, coconut milk, and water until thick and creamy in a non-stick saucepan (about 4-5 minutes).
  2. Add in the shredded coconut and mix through.
To make the compote
  1. Pour the frozen fruit into a large saucepan with the lemon juice and honey and cook on a low simmer for 8-10 minutes, stir regularly. The fruit should have thawed and become tender, still holding their shape.
  2. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, and stir in the chia seeds.
  3. The compote will naturally thicken when it cools.
  4. Serve the porridge in a bowl and top with the berry compote and more shredded coconut.
Recipe Notes

*The compote can be made in advance and stored in the fridge.
**If you don't have time to cook the porridge on the hob, soak them in water overnight instead to get the same creaminess.
