    Oats kozhukattai recipe | Easy oats breakfast recipe

    oats-kozhukattai-recipe
        This oats kozhukattai can be made so easily and quickly. I made it just like the aval kozhukattai and it turned out good. I tried this for the first time and will be in the menu here after. Its better than the oats upma. This goes well with any tomato chutney. I was eating rice day and night for past month and badly wanted to cut down the rice and bring some oats and other high fibre food in my diet, so started today with this oats kozhukattai!

    Oats kozhukattai recipe

    Recipe Cuisine: Indian  |  Recipe Category: Breakfast
    Prep Time: 5 mins    |  Cook time: 20 mins    |  Makes: 8

    Ingredients

    Quick cook oats(quaker) – 1 cup


    Water – ¾ cup


    Grated coconut(optional) – 2 tblsp


    Salt – As needed


    To temper

    Coconut oil (or any) – 2 tsp


    Mustard – 1 tsp


    Urad dal – 1 tsp


    Curry leaves – A sprig


    Green chillies – 3


    Asafoetida – 2 pinches


    Method

    1. Heat a kadai with oil and temper with the items given under ‘To temper’ table in order. Add water and salt to it and bring to boil.1-oats-recipe
    2. Add the oats and put the flame to low and mix well. Add coconut if desired and mix well. If its too dry you can sprinkle a tblsp of water.2-oats-recipe
    3. After a minute, the oats get cooked and becomes sticky rather than brittle. So this is the correct stage to put off the flame. Cool down the mixture and grease your hands. Make equal sized balls and make pidi kozhukattai.
    4. 4-kozhukattai5-oats

    5. Steam cook in greased idly plates for 4-5 minutes. Serve immediately!
    6. 3-oats-recipe

    Notes

    • Adding coconut and using coconut oil supress the boring smell of oats.
    • Eat it hot and always keep covered until you eat.
    • Water you use should be less than the quantity of oats. That way the oats wont turn mushy.
    • You can add some vegetables to add colours and make it more interesting.
    • If you use the regular oats instead of quick cook, then you should be varying the water quantity accordingly.

    I had it with Onion tomato chutney. I would say it was tasting great with it. Try it out this simple recipe! Its very filling and you will feel full for atleast 4-5 hours!!

      That's a wonderful way of adding oats. I used to mix both aval and oats and make the sweet version. But guess will try it out with just oats and check with the kids.
