Microwave Recipe -3 - Oats Kichidi

If you are one, who believes oats is healthy and have it for breakfast everyday ( there are a few I know who do!), this is a good variation.  I thought it was fine - if you are an oats fan.  Saw this in a newspaper.  Remember to eat it hot.

For 1 serving:

1/2 cup oats

1/2 onion - chopped

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tomato ( small) - optional

1/4 cup - green peas ( I used frozen peas)

1/2 tsp - cumin seeds

1/4 tsp turmeric powder

1 tsp ginger-garlic paste ( optional - I avoided this ingredient)

1-2 green chillies - finely chopped - according to taste, but remember oats is very bland

Lime juice - few drops

Coriander leaves for garnish

In a microwave safe bowl, add olive oil, cumin, onion, turmeric powder, paste, green chillies

Microwave for 4 mins.

Add the green peas, chopped tomatoes, microwave again with a lid - fresh peas can pop - so chop them

Remove lid.

Add oats and 1/2 glass of water  and microwave uncovered for about 2 mins.

Remove, squeeze fresh lime

Fluff with fork. Garnish with coriander leaves.

Eat it while it is hot.
