Method

Rinse the buckwheat¹, cover with milk², add salt, and bring to a gentle simmer.
Cook, covered, for 18–20 minutes, until the groats are tender and have absorbed most of the milk².
Warm the berries for 2–3 minutes in a saucepan, or leave them cold for a fresher serving.
Transfer the buckwheat¹ base to a bowl, and arrange the yogurt and berries alongside in sections.
Drizzle with honey, sprinkle with walnuts⁶, and serve while the porridge is warm.

Tips

Why it works: Don't cook the buckwheat longer than 20 minutes, or it falls apart and loses the firmness a bowl needs. Check with a fork: the grains should hold their shape.
Substitutions: Replace frozen berries with fresh strawberries or cherries, but cut to 70 g so the flavor isn't diluted. Replace the yogurt with sour cream if you have no Greek yogurt.
Common mistakes: The porridge turns runny if there's more than 220 ml of milk, so make sure it's almost fully absorbed. There shouldn't be a puddle at the bottom of the bowl.
Storing and reheating: Keep in the fridge for 2 days. Reheat in the microwave for 1-1.5 minutes, covered, adding 20 ml of water. Add the honey and nuts just before serving.
Serve with: Serve with black coffee or green tea for a weekend breakfast when you want something filling but light.

In short

Marked healthy: the planner picks it more often for the goals “lose weight” and “eat well”.
