Servings: 2 Portions
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- ½ teaspoon grated garlic
- ¾ teaspoon salt. divided
- 1 ½ cups water
- 2 teaspoons olive oil or any neutral cooking oil
- 200 gms mushrooms sliced
- 1 egg
Add rolled oats, garlic, ½ teaspoon of salt and 3 cups of water to a pressure cooker. Close the lid, bring to pressure and cook for 3 whistles. Let the pressure release naturally.
While the oats are cooking, heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a pan, add sliced mushrooms and saute for 3-4 minutes till they turn golden brown. Take off the heat. Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon of salt, mix well and transfer to a plate or bowl.
Heat the same pan, add 1 teaspoon of oil, and once the pan is very hot, crack one egg and cook till the white part is cooked but the yolk is runny.
To serve, add 2-3 ladles of cooked oats from the pressure cooker to a bowl, top with half the fried mushrooms, place the fried egg on top, drizzle chilli oil on top and serve hot.
Repeat the same for serving the rest of the oats.
- Feel free to experiment with different herbs, cheeses and even toppings like sundried Tomatoes, Olives or Jalapenos.
- Adjust water to keep oats to your desired consistency.
- Feel free to swap the fried egg with soft boiled eggs or scrambled eggs. But we prefer the crispy, fried egg with a runny yolk.
