Oatmeal tends to be a healthy lifestyle food, a diet food that many people say is not tasty. Do you agree with that?

Oats are suitable for breakfast. Actually, in Indonesia, we have a popular savory rice porridge dish that is enjoyed as breakfast.

This time, I will serve oats similar to serving rice porridge. This is because my mother-in-law has a lot of oats but she is confused about the tastier variations. So I took the initiative to provide another way that is more varied.

Indeed, food is about our habits. We will tend to have difficulty accepting foreign ingredients because our tongues are not used to it, not because the menu is not tasty. Just like oats, my mother-in-law and many others are not used to oats. So it will be difficult to make oats look delicious.

As a solution, of course I use seasonings that are familiar to us. I was also inspired by someone's post on Pinterest who posted about Savory Oat Porridge. So, I was excited to make my own version that I adjusted with the spices that we usually use to cook.

That's why it's important for us to know the spices that our family usually uses to cook. That will make our cooking acceptable to our family, with some adjustments of course. At least, that's what I've been doing all this time to make my mother-in-law and husband like my cooking 😊

In this oat porridge recipe, I use bay leaves which will reduce the strange smell of oatmeal (which my mother-in-law once said). It turned out to work great! Also, I use chili peppers to make the oat porridge taste familiar to our tongues. 👩‍🍳😊

I use mushrooms for protein intake. You can add peas or something else of your choice.

This recipe can be served up to 4 people 😊 Let's see how I make oat porridge! 🥣🥣🥣




THE INGREDIENTS

5F03FF0E-086B-4BC5-9A15-909FCD0409EC.jpeg

  • 1 cup of oats
  • 4 cups of water
  • 20 grams of shallots
  • 20 grams of garlic
  • 50 grams of mushrooms
  • 50 grams of green veggies
  • 1 carrot
  • 1/2 tsp of pepper powder
  • 1/2 tsp of coriander powder
  • 2 bays leaves
  • 3-5 cm of cinnamon stalk
  • salt to taste
  • a pinch of sugar (to balance the taste)



COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1

28B75D4A-5E1C-496A-8DCB-32A2ED5073D0.jpegPrepare the spices and vegetables to be cooked. Chop the garlic and shallots. Also chop the mushrooms and other vegetables into smaller pieces so that they are easier to mix with the oats later.



STEP 2

9B0D5D7B-611F-4F4A-99EC-67FA6A94C72F.jpegPrepare a pan. Heat some oil, then add chopped garlic and garlic, also bay leaves and cinnamon stalks. Stir-fry them for a while then add salt and sugar. You can also add mushrooms powder to get strong flour.



STEP 3

STEP 4

SERVING

I served the oat porridge with chopped chilies and carrots, and coconut flakes.

If you like sweet soy sauce, you can add a little sweet soy sauce on top of the porridge when serving. Here, we also eat savory rice porridge with a little sweet soy sauce.

That's how I serve oat porridge. My husband and my mother-in-law also love this creation. Unexpectedly, my little nephew also loves this porridge and he doesn't ask me to stop when I feed him. 😊

Pssst, there is an important secret for cooking recipes to be accepted by others. Prayer, and a heart full of love. I always pray that the food will be delicious and healthy for the person who eats it. Also, I always sincerely prepare food for others. Truly, there is nothing happier if other people like the food you cook with the hard work of your own hands. 😊

Until next on my recipe and kitchen stories. I hope you like this variation of oat porridge. See you! 🥣👩‍🍳
