I go for a mish-mash of other people's recipes. The result can be slightly runnier than most people like it, and as it's cooked in the microwave, it's very sensitive to variations in power output.
Take two-thirds of a glass of oats, one-and-a-third glasses of water, and a pinch of salt. Heat in the microwave on full power (800W) for about 2 minutes. Stir in two tablespoons of semi-skimmed milk and a pinch of dried fruit. Microwave on full power for 30 minutes. Stir well, add a little more milk or water if required for consistency, and leave for about two minutes to cool and thicken. Eat and enjoy. Put the bowl in to soak at once, with a squirt of washing liquid.
