This valentine's fall in love with Oats

Oh my God!!  Have I turned FAT? Please say no…what? Yes?

Ok. Time for action.

I have been hearing about Oats for a long time now. As a matter of fact I DO know they are healthy and somehow breaking the popular belief that oats are not tasty – I actually do feel, they are ‘Tasty’.

I eat them for taste and health rather than just the latter.

It is about HOW you make it. Being interested in food, I love playing with flavours, textures and presentation. So I thought how to make oats best as per my taste and went ahead by playing safe and made typical ‘Poha style oats’.

Poha has been a part of every Indian’s daily diet. Lots of vegetable, spices, flavour and aroma. Just replacing the rice flakes with healthy oats.

Posting the recipe for all to try and fall in Love with Oats this Valentine’s J

• ¼ cup mushrooms
• 3 tbsp. dry roasted garlic
• 1/4^th cup chopped green coriander

Directions

• Fry for 2 minutes and add black pepper, white pepper and salt as per taste
