Directions

To make the poached tamarillos

  1. Place the tamarillos in a small saucepan, add other ingredients and cover with water. Gently increase the heat to a simmer, then poach for about 10 minutes until the skin starts to split. Set aside. Note: I keep these in the fridge (skin removed) in the liquid, and just use them as I need to over a few days. They're great on their own with yoghurt and a little honey.

To make the porridge

  1. Heat all ingredients in a saucepan and gently increase the heat. Cook for a few minutes, then serve immediately.

To serve

  1. Pour the porridge into your favourite bowl and top with the other ingredients and reserved poached tamarillos.
