Actually, it occurs to me that if the English definition in the gimste
is accurate, then {dukse} doesn't seem to work.  {ra glare dukse}
would mean "it [the porridge] is a hot-kind-of-excess", presumably an
abbreviation of {ra dukse le ka glare}, "it is an excess of hotness".
But porridge is not heat, so it can't be an excess of heat.

What about {le ra glare cu dukse}?  Or is the gimste definition simply
misleading, and {ra glare dukse} is OK?
