Cardamom & Date Porridge With Hemp Seed Butter

Home   Recipes for Pulses, Grains, Seeds, Flakes, Flour, Ferments...   Cardamom & Date Porridge With Hemp Seed Butter
Barley Flakes Breakfast Flaked Cereals Flaked Quinoa Hemp Hemp Oil Naked Barley Flakes Naked Oats oats Porridge Quinoa Flakes Rye Flakes Sarah Cotterell & Aitana Infante Shelled Hemp Seed Wheat Flakes Whole Hemp Seed Winter

by Sarah Cotterell and Aitana Infante February 06, 2023

This wonderfully warming and aromatic breakfast recipe is from A La Mesa by Aitana and Sarah of The Little Cooking Pot in Hackney. The book is packed with delicious, seasonal, vegetarian recipes that revolve around local produce and sustainable ways of eating.

Aitana and Sarah say:

"In winter, we often start our days with a steaming bowl of porridge. Our recipe combines lots of British wholegrains and seeds, which not only taste nutty and delicious but are also full of fibre, good fats and proteins that slowly release energy and keep you going through the cold and dark mornings. We like to use a combination of flaked rye, quinoa, barley and rolled oats but you can make any combination you like or keep it simple and use just one.

"Feel free to adjust the recipe to suit your taste: if you like a thicker porridge, add more milk; if you prefer it sweeter, add more dates... you get the idea. Play around with different toppings, so that each bowl starts a day anew." 

Serves 2

Ingredients

  • 80g Mixed flaked British grains, such as rye, oats, barley and quinoa
  • 20g Linseed
  • 2 Cardamom Pods, seeds only, lightly ground
  • 4 Dates, stoned and roughly chopped
  • 400ml Milk of your choice, eg PureOaty
  • 200ml Water
For the hemp seed butter:
  • 250g Shelled Hemp Seed
  • 50ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil or Hemp Seed Oil
  • Pinch of Salt
Topping ideas:
  • Shelled hemp seeds, ground flax, toasted camelina, local honey, yoghurt, British apples or pears, nut or seed butters

Method

  1. Pop all of the porridge ingredients into a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Bring to the boil and reduce to a low simmer, mixing often. The more you mix, the creamier your porridge will be. Add more milk or water to get your desired consistency.
  2. Once the grains have broken down into a thick porridge, turn off the heat and ladle into bowls. Add a splash of cold milk and top with whatever you fancy.
  3. If you want to have a go at making our own hemp seed butter... we love the crunch you get from using whole hemp seeds, but you’ll need a powerful food processor.
  4. Lightly toast 250g of hemp seeds in a cast iron pan until they begin to pop and smell nutty. Let the seeds cool before adding them to your food processor and grind until you have a fine powder.
  5. Add a pinch of salt and 50g of extra virgin olive oil or hemp oil and continue to blend until you have a thick and slightly crunchy paste.
  6. Store the hemp seed butter in a sterilised glass jar in the fridge and use as you would peanut butter.
