Ingredients

  • 1 cup wheat groats
  • 2 cups water
  • 50 g unsalted butter
  • ½ tsp. salt

Instructions

  • As with almost every grain recipe, we will start with rinsing wheat groats under running water or washing them by covering the groats with cold water in a deep bowl and then draining it several times. We do this to prevent groats from sticking at the end of boiling.
  • Pour the necessary amount of water into the pot and put it on high heat. Wait until the water boils and season with salt.
  • Add rinsed wheat groats to the boiling water.
  • Stir groats from time to time while you wait for the water to boil. Get rid of all the foam that forms in the process.
  • When water with groats reboils, lower the heat and cook porridge for 20 minutes. To ensure that your porridge cooks through evenly and does not burn, stir wheat groats every 5 minutes or so.
  • When all water cooks off, and you know that groats are cooked through, add butter, cover the pot with a lid, and set it aside to rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
