ever heard of fried oatmeal?!!
FRIED OATMEAL - a great treat out of the norm.
-1 bowl (as full as you're hungry for) of large flake oats
-margarine/butter (whichever you like).. I like margarine
-brown sugar
-chocolate sprinkles/chips (optional)
-any other ingredients such as chopped apples, various other fruits or garnishes you think you might like on oatmeal
-1 teflon frying pan big enough to hold all the oats in your bowl
-1 wooden spoon
-1 tablespoon
-1 (normal size) spoon
[I'm not quite a chef, but some1 taught me this recipe and I loved it]
.. heat up the pan on the stove, not too high. Test the heat with the butter/margarine; if it sizzles and evaporates too fast, it's too hot.. turn down the heat. If it slowly melts with minimal sizzling, the pan's set to go.
..poor all your oats onto a table spoon of butter in the pan. Let the butter melt and stir enough so that all the oats soak up the melting butter. The aim here is to coat all the oats.
..take a tablespoon of brown sugar and sprinkle it over the oats. again, stir very well. If the oats seem to be dry or some are not shiny (as in coated with butter).. you'll need to add more butter/margarine.
.. at this point, keep stirring, but make sure the oats don't burn or over-fry in butter... too much is bad. You can now add all the rest of your desired ingredients to add them to the mix. Add adequate amounts of butter to cover anything you added just a little bit. We don't want to fatten any1 up here
.. Keep mixing everything in. At some point, without having burnt any of the ingredients (especially the oats), take a spoon taste of the oats (careful...they'll be HOT!). If they taste slightly moist and mouthwatering, they're done. Crispy is bad, and saugy is bad. We're aiming for something in between.
.. Now you may throw that all back into the bowl you're eating from, unless it isn't big enough anymore (heh... clumsy you).
Let cool a few seconds, throw on your favourite morning-trance-music, and enjoy.
