    Some people can have oats daily as smoothie or as overnight oats. However, many feel oats are bland. Indians are used to spicy food. We are used to our poha, dhokla, idli and dosa. We can make all this from oats too. Oats recipe can be altered to the spicy food we are used to. Oats dhokla is a fusion of good taste and healthy food.

    Who says oats needs to be an all bland affair?

    Forget the Bircher muesli and overnight oats for once. Use oats in poha and dhokla. We use this as a base. Make a fusion with our herbs and spices to give it a new avatar. Trust us to make up a tasty dish with this secret ingredient. Dhokla is a steamed snack very popular in western region of India. You can make this for breakfast, snack or a light dinner with soup. You get various varieties of Dhokla like mixed  dal, Khaman and Sandwich dhokla. It is an integral part of Gujarati cuisine. This oats version is a tastier way to eat oats. It also gives you a break with eating normal oats.Best part about this recipe is it doesn't dry even after 6-8 hrs.

    How to make oats dhokla?

    1. Dry roast oats for 10-15 mins on a low flame.
