In the meantime, add your blueberries to a pan with the lemon juice and water. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the berries are bursting, then allow to cool and thicken.

Mix the diced strawberries through the porridge then top with your blueberry compote and raspberries.Before serving, you can heat the porridge up, or just eat straight away.
