ABOUT Oats Morkali RECIPE

Morkali is a traditional dish from Tamilnadu made from rice flour and buttermilk. To make it more healthier I had replaced rice flour with oats flour. Replacing rice flour with oats does not compromise in taste and its absolutely heavenly if taken along with more Molagai (Curd Chili's)

Ingredients Serving: 1

Oats – 1 cup
Salt – to taste
Yogurt – ¼ cup
Water – 2 cups
Hing – A generous pinch
Curry leaves – few
Coriander leaves - few
Oil – 1.5 tsp
Mustard – ½ tsp
Channa Dhal (Bengal Gram Dhal) – 1 tsp
Mor Mulaga (Curd Chili's)– 2 Nos

Instructions

To begin making Oats Morkali, grind oats into a fine powder
Sieve Oats into a fine powder.
Add salt, curry leaves, hing powder, yogurt and water and whisk well to make a watery batter without lumps.
Set aside for 3 hours.
After 3 hours, take out the oats-buttermilk and whisk well again. Add finely coriander leaves.
Start the tempering. Take a non-stick pan and add oil, mustard, channa dal (Bengal Gram Dhal),Tear 2 mor molaga’s and fry well. Mor Molaga would take long time to fry hence make sure to put them before channa dal is fried.
Add oats-buttermilk mix and keep stirring until it turns out to be thick ( like a halwa consistency).
Serve warm or hot.
