Cooking method

Cooking time: 25 min

Rinse the grits under running water, rubbing with your fingers (get rid of dust, and not at all to remove the bitterness - the grits from the stores are super-cleaned). Drain excess water.

Put the grits in a slow cooker. Turn on the slow cooker in the "Frying" mode. Stir the grits constantly, fry for 5-7 minutes.

It is desirable to boil water (but you can also just hot), pour it over the cereal, add salt, close the lid. Turn on the "Porridge" (or "Pilaf") mode. Cook until the signal. During cooking, it is advisable to mix twice, because the grains stick together and clump. After the signal, open the lid, put the butter, close, let stand for 10-15 minutes. Mix it up.

The finished porridge can be served sprinkled with sugar or with milk. And it is also possible with vegetables (ideally with mushrooms and onions or fresh vegetables), meat, etc.
