This is a traditional Chadian hot breakfast cereal.

Ingredients:

1l water
200g rice or wheat
3 tbsp peanut butter
3 tbsp wheat, millet or corn flour
buttermilk or the juice from 1 lemon
sugar to taste
200ml whole milk

Method:

Boil the water then add the rice or wheat. Mix the peanut butter with 200ml lukewarm water to form a smooth paste and pour into the rice mixture. Mix the flour with a little water to make a smooth paste and add this to the rice mixture as well. Simmer for about 40 minutes then add the lemon juice or buttermilk.

Add sugar according to taste. The final consistency should be about that of a thick porridge. If too thick add the whole milk to thin it out. Take off the heat, wait 10 minutes and serve.
