Savoury Oats with Spices

Too many generalizations have been made about oats. They are simply bland. But, creativity can change all that. I have discovered one interesting way to cook oat that can add flavour to it. And I have made it into a delicious Asian flavour that every one can enjoy. Add some spices, and what you get is a sumptuous meal! Have a try!

Ingredients
5 cups of quick cooking oats
water, as desired
1 table spoon garam masala
1 table spoon paprika
1 table spoon cumin powder
1 table spoon coriander powder
zuchinni, cubed
carrots, cubed
salt, to taste
1 big onion, chopped
3 garlic, chopped
1 inch ginger, chopped
1/2 chicken breast, minced

Methods
1. Fry garlic, onion and ginger in a pot. Add in minced chicken and stir fry.

2. When the chicken is tender, add in garam masala, paprika, cumin and coriander powder and cook for another minute.

3. Add in the zuchinni and carrots. Stir well for a minute.

4. When the vegetables are tender, pour in the oats and add water to it to make a thick broth.

5. Add salt and cook well until all ingredients are soft.

6. Best taken warm.
