THE OIL:
We add a flavoured oil to have a clean herbal not to the porridge. you are going to want to have this made.

500g - Grapeseed Oil
1 bunch - Lemon Verbena (picked and woody stalks removed)

In the Thermomix add the ingredients then blitz on full for 1 min. then set 6 mins 60C and speed 6. once this has done you can cool the oil and use or pour over some more verbena leafs and infuse for 24hrs to intensify the flavour.
