OATS PONGAL | INDIAN OATS RECIPES

     Pongal and oats makes a good combo as both are meant to be mushy. I make this oats pongal for lunch and have it with sambar for a filling meal… If you have chutney also for side dish,then you will never complain anything,just make it,eat hot,its really good!  One day saw the Saffola oats advertisement in the magazine about this Oats pongal and got tempted and made instantly and had for lunch.

Oats Pongal

Notes:

  • The consistency can be varied according to your wish just adjust the water ratio.
  • You can also cook everything in pressure cooker together. But sometimes dal is not getting cooked properly.
  • Always eat the pongal hot.
