We have rotis almost every night for dinner,on weekdays after a hectic workday my body just doesn't allow me to get innovative with the dinner menu and we resort to rotis.Though Sanjeev always encourages,appreciates and loves it when I experiment with food he is also highly obliging of the fact I cannot spare any energy to cook something new altogether for dinner on weekdays.Hence we reserve newer Menu options on dinner table for Weekends. I wanted to try Oats Idli for quite sometime and after a series of blog hopping I finally managed to come up with the below very simple,easy and yet tasty recipe giving hubby dear and whole new flavour of Oats than the usual Oats porridge that we have for breakfast.The idlis turned out to be very tasty and light .Though it appears like rava idli they are very moist and tastes best when served hot.Sanjeev relished every bit of it and wanted me to try out other variations like Oats Dosa and Oats pongal too...
