Oats Idli is quick and yet healthy and delicious breakfast recipe. To make these idlis you can use either rolled oats or quick cooking oats. These idlis are soft and spongy and perfect for the breakfast. You can serve it with chutney or samba. I also used rava in this oats idli recipe to get the right texture. I adapted this recipe from my rava idli recipe.
One of the way i include oats in our diet is with these oats idli recipe, I also make simple oats porridge but my husband is not a fan of oats porridge (basically he does not like oats
) so i have to make oats idli or oats upma instead. Oats idli is a simple and healthy breakfast option and more importantly its instant. So you can prepare it in busy weekday mornings. As these are not fermented, eno salt or baking soda and curd is used in this instant oats idli recipe to make them soft and spongy. For breakfast i regularly make a big batch of fresh idli dosa batter and store it in fridge. But sometimes when im done with dosa batter this oats idli come as a handy.
