Ingredients
1/4 cup | steel-cut oats | 45 g | |
2 tbsp | quinoa | 20 g | |
1 tbsp | chia seeds | 10 g | |
1 cup | water | 250 mL | |
1 pinch | salt | 0.2 g |
Before you start
If you cannot find steel-cut oat, you may grind some whole oat groats in a food processor.
Method
- Place the quinoa in a fine strainer and hold it under cold running water until the water runs clear, then drain well.
- Put the steel-cut oats, quinoa, and chia seeds in a bowl. Add water, cover then let soak in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours.
- Transfer mixture to a saucepan with a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, with stirring. Turn the heat to low, cover and simmer for 15-20 min, stirring from time to time. If the mixture seems too thick, you may add a little bit of water and continue cooking.
- Serve with desired toppings.
Observations
The cooked oatmeal may be kept in the refrigerator for a couple of days. To reheat, simply add a few spoonfuls of water or milk then heat up in the microwave by 30 sec increments.
