Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to cook porridge from corn grits with milk? Prepare all the necessary products. Choose cereals from a reliable manufacturer, clean, without foreign impurities, and most importantly, without the larvae of cereal midges. Therefore, do not chase cheapness, but focus on the appearance of the cereal. Milk can be of any fat content. In addition, in addition to regular milk of animal origin, you can also use plant milk. Use the amount of sugar and salt to suit your taste.

Step 2

Step 2
Prepare a saucepan with a thick bottom — only in such a container can you cook milk porridge. It’s even better if you have a special saucepan with a double bottom for cooking porridge. Pour milk into the pan, add salt.

Step 3

Step 3
Then add sugar. If you prefer sweet porridges or maybe you are cooking for children, then you can add vanilla sugar and cinnamon. Literally a pinch of each ingredient.

Step 4

Step 4
Bring the milk to a boil over low heat. Stir the milk constantly until it boils to prevent it from burning.

Step 5

Step 5
Rinse the cereal well until the water runs clear. If necessary, remove debris and foreign matter. There are two types of corn grits: very fine, which is used to make polenta, and larger, structural ones. To prepare this dish, you can use any type of cereal. I took the larger view. Pour the cereal into boiling milk.

Step 6

Step 6
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for literally 5 minutes. Keep in mind that the porridge will thicken greatly. If you like a more liquid version of porridge, then initially add less cereal or add a little milk or water to the pan during cooking.

Step 7

Step 7
You can add butter to the porridge, or you can not add it — it’s all at your discretion. And, of course, milk porridges should be cooked immediately before eating and eaten hot. Bon appetit!
