Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Begin by cooking the multi-grain oatmeal as per the package instructions. Typically, you would combine 1/2 cup of multi-grain oatmeal with 1 cup of water in a pot and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, stirring occasionally, until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency. This should take around 5-7 minutes.
- While your oatmeal is cooking, prepare the peas. If using fresh or frozen peas, blanch them by bringing a small pot of water to a boil. Add the peas and cook for about 2 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside. If using canned peas, simply drain and rinse them.
- Once the oatmeal is cooked, remove it from the heat. Stir in the sesame oil and soy sauce until well combined.
- Add the cooked peas to the oatmeal and stir gently to combine everything evenly.
- Transfer the sesame-soy oatmeal with peas to a bowl.
- Optionally, you can garnish with additional sesame seeds or a sprinkle of green onions for extra flavor and texture.
- Serve warm and enjoy your savory Sesame-Soy Oatmeal with Peas!
Tips:
- To enhance the flavor, you can toast the oatmeal lightly in a dry pan before cooking.
- For a creamier texture, consider replacing a portion of the water with vegetable broth or milk.
- Add a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds on top for added crunch and flavor.
- Feel free to incorporate other vegetables you have on hand, such as finely chopped carrots or bell peppers.
- Adjust the soy sauce to taste, starting with 1 teaspoon if you prefer a milder flavor, and adding more if needed.
This Sesame-Soy Oatmeal with Peas is a quick and nutritious way to start your day or enjoy as a light meal. The unique savory twist elevates traditional oatmeal into something truly special. Enjoy the harmony of flavors and the nourishing benefits packed into each bite!
