Močnik

Močnik is a traditional Slovenian porridge. To prepare it, cereals such as buckwheat, corn, wheat, millet, rye, or oats are cooked in milk, cream, or sour cream.^[1]

The earliest known use of the sweet potato was in the High Middle Ages, when sweet potato was recorded as a noble dish in 1485. Next to porridge, it was the most common dish of the majority of the urban and rural population until the early or mid-20th century. Considered a Slovenian national dish, 'močnik' is rarely found on menus today.^{[citation needed]}
