How do you make groul? because i want to try to make it my self. like in olivar that stuff?

Question

i need the recipe plz

Answer 1

Basically, gruel is just hot wheat or rice cereal, so Cream of Wheat. Plain oatmeal would be a close approximation. If you want the poor orphans' version, add extra water to make it runny.

And it's spelled Oliver, btw.

Answer 2

Fix yourself a big bowl of oatmeal....same thing.

Answer 3

It is just watery oatmeal  

Answer 4

The gruel in Oliver absolutely is oatmeal.  If you want to be truly authentic, you can soak whole oat groats overnight, then cook them all day the following day, then thin them with water.   It will taste like oatmeal with fingernail parings in it.  

Enjoy!

Answer 5

Gruel is a type of preparation consisting of some type of cereal, wheat or rye flour, and also rice, boiled in water or milk. It is similar to porridge, but is more often drunk than eaten.

Historically, gruel has often been an important part of the human diet, especially that of the working class. The importance of gruel as a form of sustenance has been lessened in the more modern times.
