Ingredients
Old Fashioned oats - 1 cup
Onion - 1 small sized
Green chillies - 2
Mixed vegetables - 2 cups
Ginger - 1/2 inch
Sambar powder - 1 teaspoon(optional)
Oil - 1 spoon
Water - 1 3/4 cups
Mustard seeds - 1 tteaspoon
Urad dhal - 1 teaspoon
Channa dhal - 1 teaspoon
Curry leaves - 1 sprig
Salt to taste
Directions
Chop the onions and vegetables. I used a mixture of carrots, corn and peas. Mice the ginger.
To a kadai, add the oil and do the seasoning with the mustard seeds, urad dhal, channa dhal, curry leaves. Then add the onion and saute till translucent. Add the ginger and slit green chillies and fry for a few seconds. Add the mixed vegetables and saute for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the water and bring it to a boil. Add the sambar powder and oats and stir well. Also add salt to taste. Cover and cook for about for about 10 minutes until the oats is cooked through and absorbs all the water. it should not turn very mushy. it tastes best if it still remains chewy.
Serve hot with yoghurt and pickle!
