I tried this exotic little number this morning just after Ireland beat Italy in New Zealand. Couldn’t muster up Kiwis or Kahula so used a lovely ripe peach and some Amaretto instead. Lovely!

Hey Lucy – I know it sounds a little bonkers but it does work. You can certainly skip the kahlua if it’s a work day – though it might just make the work day go that little bit smoother if you don’t :D

wow I love this recipe – sounds a little bonkers – but I’m pretty sure it’d work – I’m going to try this this winter – maybe I’ll skip the kahlua if I’m off to work!

[...] sends this soup on a journey far to the east of both Scotland and Ireland. Having previously used coconut milk in porridge, however, I knew how nicely it could work with oats. The pinhead oatmeal, in particular, both [...]

[...] I mean, you’re more than likely to find oats and butter and sugar, but, really, you can add whatever else takes your fancy (just take a look at Sarah’s five flavours of flapjack post, which is what got me started down this road in the first place). If you’re me, the “whatever else” might just take the shape of some Baileys Irish Cream (which is no more than you would expect from someone (hic!) who has been known to add kahlúa to their porridge…).

I love this recipe and am focused on the addition of kahlua, as delicious as it sounds, I am not sure I not sure I would be as productive. But a Sunday kicking back to read the paper, it doesn’t get much better.

Chef E: oh yes to mango in porridge – if I’d had some, that definitely would have gone in there!

sweetlife: the oats and coconut milk are indeed a very happy combination :)

Tangled Noodle: thought you might like the coconut milk addition (it’s not so far from the idea of cooking rice in some coconut milk, really – in fact I may even have had that in my head as I made this – that and the thought of that mahnomin porridge which is still on my list – in fact, I’m sure I have some wild rice around here somewhere… I’ll be cookin’ some up with my friend and mentor Saint E. any day now!)

Sophie: just a little taste of kahlúa to add that extra bit of warmth on a winter’s morning, my friend :)

Ah, coconut milk – creamy elixir! I love my oatmeal but you’ve elevated it from humble porridge to tropical delight. It would go a long way toward making this long winter so much more bearable!
