# Required Ingredients:
→ Oatmeal Base
01 -
50 g quick-cooking rolled oats
02 -
120 ml water
03 -
1 pinch fine sea salt
→ Custard Enrichment
04 -
1 large egg, whisked
05 -
80 ml cold water
→ Aromatics
06 -
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or pure vanilla extract (optional)
# How to Make It:
01 -
Combine quick-cooking rolled oats, 120 ml water, and a pinch of salt in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Stir continuously until the mixture becomes thick, creamy, and most of the water has evaporated.
02 -
Lower the heat to low. Add 80 ml very cold water and the whisked egg to the pot. Whisk vigorously to fully incorporate, ensuring a smooth, custard-like consistency without curdling the egg.
03 -
Remove the pot from heat. Stir in vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract, if using, until evenly distributed.
04 -
Transfer the custard oatmeal to a serving bowl. Add desired fruits, seeds, or preferred toppings before serving.
# Additional Information:
01 -
For best results, use quick-cooking oats. If using regular rolled oats, increase the water slightly to compensate for longer cooking time and firmer texture.
02 -
Adding the egg with very cold water helps prevent it from scrambling and ensures a smooth custard base.
