We will prepare this dish according to the classic recipe that used cooks in the dining rooms.

Ingredients for cooking porridge:

• millet - 3/4 glasses;
• rice - 3/4 glasses;

Preparation of porridge Friendship in a slow cooker:

1. Before proceeding with the cooking process, you need to pay attention to the choice of components. Group should be of high quality. Choose a product in transparent packages of average cost. Cheap cereals are not the best option, taste and consistency may not live up to expectations.
2. What else needs to be taken into account: you need to buy round -grained rice (ordinary, but not steamed). This type of cereal is better boiled and absorbs the liquid well. It is ideal for viscous porridge, such as we need.
3. Now the recommendations for choosing millet - cereal must be selected no less carefully, paying attention to the color. If there are packages with pale yellow grain, then this is a weak millet, in which a minimum of useful components. If the millet is bright, yellow, like the sun, but does not shine, but rather matte, then we need such a product - the maximum benefit and no bitterness.
4. We wash rice in several waters in several waters, in a separate bowl - millet. Pour fresh water, drain, and so a few more times.
5. Pour millet with rice into a multicooker bowl. Pour water and add a little salt and sugar.
6. Mix the contents of the slow cooker, add milk. As for this product, one should also approach the choice of milk as responsibly as possible. If you buy it in the store, check the final implementation period. It is best to take fresh, it’s good if you get to the bait. Carefully inspect the package, it should be whole and not swollen. If you want homemade milk, go to the market and do not be too lazy to check the product quality - you need to try milk and smell. It should smell pleasantly, but not sour. The taste should also not be sour. Fresh milk of saturated white color or a slightly creamy shade, with a yellowish top. If you saw that the milk in the bank is watery, bluish and liquid, then this is not the best option.
7. Pour raw milk. Mix all the ingredients with a spatula.
8. On this note, you can close the device cover and set the cooking mode - press the “porridge” or “milk porridge” key on the device, time is set independently.
9. We are waiting for the treasured signal and then pour hot aromatic porridge into the plates and add a piece of butter.
10. By the way, some housewives say that milk in the process of cooking porridge in a multicooker “runs away”. This can happen even when you diluted it with water (according to the recipe, this is correct). Then, so that this does not happen, it is necessary to install a basket container for preparing dishes in a multicooker bowl on top of the multicooker bowl (a basket with holes).
