  Soak the oatmeal in the milk for 30 minutes, turn all into a pan
  and stir until it boils. Then simmer 3-4 minutes. Pour mixture into
  a bowl and add the beaten egg, grated lemon rind, and sugar to

  mixture when it's cooled, and then fold in the cream. Pour the
  whole mixture into a glass bowl and leave to set. Serve with 3-4 tb
  of chosen fruit sauce on top.
