Fill the washed rice in a saucepan with clean water, stir 1 time, bring to a boil and cook for 8-12 minutes. If you are always in the preparation process to mix the porridge with a spoon, it will turn out to be sticky and unrestricted.
Apples should be cut into small slices, you can peel them from the skin, but this is not necessary. If you cook for children in the period of problems with teeth, you can generally grate an apple on a grater.

If you want milk rice porridge with apples, add warm milk to it. Boil porridge on milk is not necessary (rice is badly boiled in milk).
To make rice porridge with sweet apples, you can add a little sugar to it (to taste), and better - natural flower honey. It should be noted that when adding honey, porridge should not be hot, because when heated, honey does not just lose all its usefulness, but harmful compounds also begin to form in it.

Dried fruits before adding to the porridge must be steamed in boiling water.
