Rice porridge - pitta and vata friendly breakfast

For those who are trying to balance their pitta and/or vata then this is a brilliant breakfast idea and great at this time of year especially, as we head into autumn and vata season. Those of you who are kapha, will love this recipe, but need to be careful about portion size.

Ingredients for 2-3 servings

1/2cup of white or brown basmati rice

1/2 cup coconut milk

salt

stick of cinnamon (small)

sugar or maple syrup as necessary

dry fruits

almond flakes

 Method

Cook the rice and cinnamon with 3 cups of water until it becomes soggy. When the rice grains are very soft, add milk and stir continuously until the milk boils. Mix sugar/maple syrup, almond flakes and a few dry fruits (if they are pre-soaked much better). if you prefer more liquid form, add a little more hot water. If you prefer semi solid, keep on fire until it becomes thicker.

 Enjoy!
