depends how hungry you are.
me pa showed me how to make as a child. 1 fistful of oats to 1 cup of water. Smaller hands means a smaller portion, so works for kids. The extra water makes it softer/easier to eat for kids.

Porridge is pretty tolerant to variation in proportions. Too much water, cook longer, not enough water, add some more. Left it a while and it's gone to a solid mass, add milk, heat and stir.

Porridge is great.
