In search of the ideal breakfast – buckwheat pudding with almonds and banana

 

As the Chinese proverb goes: "Eat breakfast alone, share lunch with your friends and give dinner to your enemy". There is something to it, because according to dietitians, it is the most important meal of the day, because it should supply you with energy after the night's rest. Apart from weekends and holidays we rarely have enough time to prepare and eat breakfast. I am searching for the kind of breakfast which will supply a lot of nutrients and let us start our day pleasantly.

Today for the first time I used buckwheat groats for preparing breakfast. I know that not everyone likes them because of their heavy "smoky" taste and smell. For breakfast I recommend using unroasted buckwheat groats. They are light and in my opinion have a slightly nutty taste, and if we only scour and soak them, the groats don't lose their fibre and valuable vitamins.

I found the recipe for this breakfast in the book "Zielone koktajle. 365 przepisów" ("Green cocktails. 365 recipes").

Ingredients:
60g of unroasted buckwheat groats
1 banana
3 dates
150ml of almond milk
half a teaspoon of cinnamon
fruit and almonds for decoration

Scour the unroasted buckwheat groats and soak them the day before. Drain them and blend with the banana, dates and almond milk. Decorate with fruit and almonds before serving.

Enjoy your meal!

It isn't Chinese. It is most often said to be Russian, but I've also seen it cited as being Mongolian.

I think @liuzhou that actually "Who" matters less:) the "What was said" is more important:)
