Guest guest Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 >I tried to make fried mush out of left over oatmeal today. The finnal product of the fried mush is described in the recipe as patties. I was expecting patties or something like pancakes. Instead, the mush didn't firm up or hold together at all. Mush, it remained. Do I need to add another egg? Was my oatmeal too liquidy to start with? Has anyone made these before? I'd really like to be able to make a nice snack out of leftover hot cereal. Thanks so much. > > ~Johannah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classically with something like polenta it should be so firm as to be sliceable. Then you don't need an egg, though dredging it in egg (like french toast) is yummy. I usually save leftover porridge, add some flour and a little sugar and salt, mix in some whey or kefir, and let it sit overnight. Then I add an egg and some baking soda and viola! pancakes!
