How To Make Easy Oats Recipe
This is a quick oats recipe that won’t take very long for you to prepare. You can enjoy chocolate oatmeal any time of the day, whether you’re cooking up a quick breakfast, or a nutritious evening snack, or even a healthy dinner substitute. So here’s how to make oats porridge.
Step 1: Prepare the Oatmeal Mix
As with any other oatmeal best recipe, the first step of this chocolate oatmeal recipe is to prepare the oatmeal mix in a pot. More often than not, with most oatmeal breakfast ideas, you can get creative and use the ingredients you like. Just make sure you get the ratio of oatmeal to milk right. In case of this easy recipe with oats, we’re making porridge, so the ratio can be skewed more in favor of oats over milk depending on how thick you want the porridge to be. We recommend a 60:40 ratio between oats and milk. The base of the mix must be the rolled oats. Add some Nutralite Choco Spread Calcium Enriched flavor to the layer of baked oats. Then add the rest of the ingredients.
Step 2: Boil the Oatmeal Mix
Transfer the oatmeal mix to a stove and cook it on medium heat. Keep stirring it while it’s cooking to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot. This process should take around 6-8 minutes and the oatmeal mix should look thick and creamy.
Step 3: Transfer the oatmeal to a bowl and enjoy
Your chocolate oats porridge is ready to serve! Pour some out into a bowl and enjoy! That’s all there is to this simple chocolate oatmeal recipe!
Bonus Tip
Butter chicken, also known as “murgh makhani” in Hindi, is believed to have originated by chance in Delhi, India.
Legend has it that it was created in the 1950s at the Moti Mahal restaurant when leftover tandoori chicken was mixed with a rich, tomato-based gravy, and the result was the now-beloved dish, butter chicken. This is a testament to how some of the most iconic and delicious recipes are often born out of culinary experimentation.
