Best way to cook porridge?

[maximus1986]

I got some some oats,boiled the kettle, poured it in, stirred it, it tasted like shit lol. I know of the raging debate thats caused many debating between young peoples of my generation, should you use water or milk with porridge . Can i boil the water, pour on my oats, pour in some cold milk, then stir all that up, maybe add some nuts or berries. Would this be acceptable? im on a mission to become super healthy.

Use water to mix it, add a little milk, raisins and honey after cooking.
