Chai Oatmeal image

This is an adaptation of a recipe that was published in our local paper. My daughter and I like it so much I have made a large batch of the spice mix to simplify our breakfast routine. Anyone who likes Indian food will probably enjoy this for a change.

Time 6m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup large flake oatmeal
1/8 teaspoon turmeric (original recipe called for 1/4 tsp....you decide)
1/8 teaspoon salt (1/4 tsp. in original)
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice (original recipe called for ground cloves)
1 pinch nutmeg
1 teaspoon honey (I omit, but my daughter adds 1 package of Equal after cooking for sweetness)
1 1/2 cups milk
sometimes i add toasted chopped walnuts (optional) or almonds, after cooking depending on my mood and what is on hand (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine oatmeal and flavourings in a deep, microwave safe bowl.
  • Add milk and stir to combine.
  • Cook on high power for 2 minutes, then stir.
  • Continue cooking and stirring at one minute intervals until the oatmeal is as thick as you like.
  • Top with favourite toppings. I like plain yogurt and a touch of maple syrup.
