Ingredients

For the Oats:

  • 1 teaspoon Oil
  • ¼ teaspoon Ginger grated
  • 1 cup Oats quick cooking
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 2 cups Water

For the Mushrooms:

  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 cup Mushrooms sliced
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Heat a teaspoon of oil in a pan and add grated ginger. Sauté the ginger for 30 seconds and add oats. Stir the oats for a few seconds and add all the water, salt and pepper.
  • Bring this to a quick boil, and simmer for 3-4 minutes, by which time, the mixture would have thickened up into a porridge like consistency and the oats will be cooked. Adjust the consistency by adding more water if required.
  • In a non-stick pan, heat olive oil and add the mushrooms. Cook on high heat for a few minutes till mushrooms are golden brown. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
  • To serve, top with oats with mushrooms, poached egg, a dash of soy sauce and green onions.

Notes

  1. This is a very quick recipe. Do not prepare it and store it for later as oatmeal can very easily become dry and gluggy
  2. You can substitute mushrooms for any other vegetable such as zucchini, broccoli etc.,
  3. You can also use different varieties of mushrooms such as button mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms or oyster mushrooms.
