Steps

30 minutes

1

To begin, dry roast the oats until crisp. Be careful not to brown them too much. Remove and keep aside.
2

In the same pan, heat 1 tbsp of oil. Sesame oil works best for this recipe.
3

Add in mustard seeds and allow them to crackle. Add in the curry leaves.
4

Next, add in the chopped green chillies, garlic, and ginger followed by half of the onions. Cook until onions are translucent.
5

Add in the vegetables and cook until a bit tender.
6

Add in salt, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, jeera powder, dhania powder, and amchoor powder.
7

Add in the roasted oats and mix well.
8

Add in a cup of water. Cook for a few minutes until it forms the consistency you prefer. My family likes a drier version. That requires a bit longer cooking time.
9

Add in the remaining onions and mix well.
10

Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.
