Haebernes mus (oatmeal mush)

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
500 grams Oatmeal (OR wheat flour) (a generous lb)
¼ litre Water 1 (1 cup plus 1 Tbsp)
3 tablespoons Lard
1 dash Salt

Directions

From grandmother's more thrifty times; rarely encountered today.

In a skillet, brown the oatmeal a bit. Then add water and salt. In a cast iron skillet, pan fry the resulting thick dough in the lard, tearing it into pieces in the process.
