Graham S Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Being Scottish myself and having Scottish parents, all from Glasgow, my Mum use to make proper porridge, and still to this day can taste the salt that she use to pour into it when making it. I'd never be up early enough to see what she'd put in it but only thing i'd ever put on it is milk, mainly to water it down when she make it stupidly thick so it stuck to the bowl if i held it upside down. But when she made it nice and runny it was nice, don't remember putting anything else on it though and haven't tried it in years! Once she got bored of porridge i got stuck with 20 (YES 20!) little sausages called 'Wee Willy Winkies'for my breakfast! Any other Scots heard of these.

Ewen Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Cheese and apple? Now you're talking. Sliced apple, cheese and banana, in a bowl, sprinkled with sugar. Lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
