Ingredients

Base Ogi

  • 5 tablespoons Poshy Ogi flour
  • 1/2 cup Cold water (for slurry)
  • 1.5 cups Boiling water

Flavor & Toppings

  • 1 tsp Cocoa or chocolate powder
  • 1 tbsp Chia seeds
  • 1 Banana, sliced
  • 1/4 cup Granola
  • 3–4 Strawberries or berries (optional)
  • 1 tsp Honey or sugar (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the Ogi Slurry

    In a bowl, mix 5 tablespoons of Poshy Ogi flour with 1/2 cup of cold water until smooth and lump-free.

    Tip: A smooth slurry prevents lumps in the final product.

  2. 2

    Prepare Boiling Water

    Bring 1.5 cups of water to a rolling boil separately.

    Tip: Use fresh, filtered water for best flavor.

  3. 3

    Cook the Ogi

    While stirring the slurry, slowly pour the boiling water into the bowl. Continue stirring until the mixture thickens and becomes creamy.

    Tip: Maintain continuous stirring to achieve smooth consistency.

  4. 4

    Steam and Rest

    Cover the bowl and let it steam for 5 minutes to deepen the flavor and texture.

    Tip: Steaming enhances the natural sweetness of the Ogi.

  5. 5

    Flavor the Base

    Stir in cocoa powder and sweetener if using.

    Tip: Add cocoa while warm for best flavor integration.

  6. 6

    Add Toppings and Serve

    Transfer to a serving bowl. Top with banana slices, chia seeds, granola, and optional berries. Eat warm for comfort or chilled for a refreshing morning bowl.

    Tip: Layer toppings for visual appeal and texture variety.

Tips

  • Prepare toppings while Ogi steams to save time
  • Use seasonal fruits for maximum nutrition
  • Chia seeds add omega-3s and fiber
  • Granola provides crunch and sustained energy
  • Customize sweetness based on your preferences
