Stir the flour into the water until fully combined with no lumps.

Once the water in the pot comes to a boil, add the flour mixture into the pot.

Using a wooden spatula, stir continuously until the porridge thickens.

Once thickened, add 30 grams of milk powder mixed with 1/2 cup of water to the pot.

Stir until the milk powder is fully combined.

Add 1/2 cup of sugar (optional) and reduce the flame to medium low.

Simmer the porridge for around 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

If the porridge thickens too much, add a splash of more milk.

After 5 minutes, stir one last time and remove from heat.

Serve the porridge into bowls.
