          1. Remove bacon and set to the side. Add in sliced spring onion and extra oil if needed, sauté until fragrant and soft. Add in strained oats, 2 cups of water, salt and pepper to taste.

          1. Cook until most of the water as absorbed and porridge is thick. Turn off the heat and stir through bacon and cheese.

          ANZAC Cookies with a Twist

          Baking these golden oaty ANZAC biscuits on ANZAC Day is an annual tradition that honours our New Zealand servicemen and women. It's a day when I fondly remember my own Poppa, a proud WWII veteran and a true Kiwi who embodied the spirit of bravery and camaraderie.


          In my Anzac Biscuit recipe below, I've added a twist to the traditional biscuit by including the spice of crystallized ginger, a drizzle of chocolate, and a sprinkle of sea salt. I always use Harraways oats as it feels right to use a 100% Kiwi company, plus I personally prefer the taste and quality of the products.
