  • Oats – 2 cups

  • Add corn meal (shown below), red chilli powder, asafoetida powder, turmeric, red chillies broken into tiny bits, salt along with onion and curry leaves chopped finely. Mix thoroughly. Sprinkle water little by little and make a dough.
  • Make orange size balls. For the above quantity, you can get approximately 6 balls.

    Hai Kamala,

    Nice recipe. Today i tried this …yeah it came out well…..but in this recipe there is no binding agent, so when i pat the balls its not coming out in shape & also if its hot then its good to eat.

    But anyhow nice healthy recipe. And i tried oats pongal & oats upma…..both r very good recipe,both came out very well.

    Thanks a lot for ur new try.
    keep posting more.

    Hi Kalyani,

    Thank you for your feedback. oats flour bind nicely. When you mix the oats flour with water, you will feel the stickiness and will bind with others. Try to sprinkle little more water to make the douch. Even when you stretch the flour to make the adai, it will stretch nicely.
