Oats Khichdi Recipe | Healthy Weight Loss Khichdi Recipe with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Rice and lentil-based recipes and meals are very common across India and are prepared for various occasions. Typically it is prepared for lunch and dinner as the rice does supply the necessary amount of carbs in each meal. However, it can also be prepared with other basic ingredients and rolled oats are one such ingredient with the oats khichdi recipe as a popular choice.

To be honest, I have not prepared many recipes using rolled oats. However, I have to admit, it is one of the healthy and nutritious ingredients for any cause. At the same time, we do not have many native recipes with it. Typically, oats are introduced as one of the hero ingredient replacements to prepare a fusion recipe. This is one such fusion recipe where rice is replaced with oats and mixed with moong dal to prepare a healthy and tasty fusion khichdi. In addition, to it, I have also added a bunch of veggies to the khichdi making it a wholesome complete meal. The veggies are basic, but you may add exotic vegetables to them to make them even more interesting. Moreover, you may even serve it with a choice of raita salad or with a spicy pickle to make it a complete package.

Furthermore, some more related and additional tips, suggestions, and tips for a creamy oats khichdi recipe. Firstly, I would heavily recommend using rolled oats without any flavor to them. As we are adding powdered spices to the khichdi, the additional flavors from the oats can spoil the taste and combined flavor. Secondly, adding vegetables is completely open-ended and you may add any finely chopped veggies as per your choice. However, try to minimize the quantity as it may disturb the oats and moong dal balance. Lastly, the khichdi may get thicker when rested and hence you may have to add water to bring it to the right consistency. In addition, you may have to reheat it for a better experience.
