1. Add ½ teaspoon of salt to a 4 cup (1 quart) microwavable bowl.

2. Add ½ teaspoon of powdered basil. (optional)

3. Add ½ teaspoon of powdered ginger. (optional)

4. Add ¼ teaspoon of asafeotida (available from East Indian grocery stores). (optional)

5. Add 2 teaspoons of curry powder.¹

6. Rock the bowl from side to side in order to distribute the salt and spices somewhat evenly.

7. Put the bowl on your kitchen scale and zero the scale.

8. Using your fingers, break off small pieces from a solid block of American style cheese, such as Kraft™ Velveeta,™ until 4 ounces of cheese have been added.

10. Microwave on high until the mixture comes to a boil. (Microwave for 2 minutes. Then microwave in 30 second intervals while watching very carefully lest it boil over.)

11. Add 1½ cups of “cold cereal” such as wheat flakes or corn flakes.²

12. Mix, scraping the bottom so that all of the salt and spices are thoroughly mixed in.

13. Microwave on high until the mixture again comes to a boil (approximately 30 seconds).

14. Serve while still warm.

¹ If you don’t have any curry powder, then you can make your own: 3 parts ground coriander, 1 part ground red chili beans, 1 part ground cumin, 1 part ground fenugreek and 1 part ground turmeric.

² Instead of 1½ cups of “flakes” cereal you could substitute ¾ cup of instant oatmeal, ½ cup of instant mashed potato flakes, ½ cup of “Gerber™ Rice Cereal for Baby,” or 2 cups of a cereal such as Rice Chex™ or Crispix.™
