Cooking for my kids is one of the most fun things for me.
I love all the trials & errors, the entire process from start to finish.
Masala oats was one such recipe that I prepared which turned out a total hit especially for my son.
Well he doesn’t like eating oats porridge, he’s like his mumma he gravitates more towards savoury than sweet. So when I told him, son I’m making oats today, he wasn’t particularly happy but didn’t protest either , he knows oats are good for him.
I decided to surprise him instead of the same old same old sweet porridge that he was expecting I made a savoury version.
And I’m telling you there's no sight better than a smile on your kids face when they get something what they want.
Hahahahaha he’s like, “Mumma!!! You’re a mind reader, you made want I was thinking of”
And needless to say he polished off the entire bowl & asked for more.....
Golden words to the mothers ears , “Mumma please can I have some more.”
Try out this easy peasy yummy recipe if you’re bored of the same old same old oats porridge.
