During my long working days at the office this ,used to be my staple breakfast.Apart from that fact that its so healthy and wholesome,this really can be made in a jiffy.I never got bored of eating this for almost everyday for three years because I always tweaked the recipe with different fruits or different nuts.This, till date is my favourite breakfast item.You can make a hundred different versions of it depending on your taste.Its healthy and a child 's play recipe.Below given is the conventional recipe followed by a modern and a much quicker version:-)
Serves-1
4tsp Oats-I use Quaker
1 cup milk-
1tsp sugar
1tsp strong coffee granules
6 Almonds
10 raisins
any other nuts or seeds of your choice
Heat milk,add sugar and coffee.Bring it to a boil .
Remove from fire and stir in the oats.Leave it for ten minutes for the oats to cook in the hot milk.
Sliver six almonds and roast them for a minute in a skillet over fire.(You can always add almonds without roasting it but once you get hooked to the aroma of roasted almonds,you will never want to add it just like that.)
Add it to the milk soaked oats.
Wash the raisins and sprinkle.on the oats.
Its ready to be served:-)
*I add flax seeds and melon seeds for a more healthier meal.
You can again vary the recipe by adding Cinnamon powder or vanilla essence or anything of your choice instead of coffee granules.
The quicker version involves flavoured packaged soy milk instead of regular milk.You only need to take two moments the previous night to create the base.Pick any of you favourite flavoured soy milk and soak the oats the previous night.Add some chopped fruit like banana or apple or both and its ready to be eaten.
