Health Benefits of Oats:
1. Oats for Weight Loss. Starting the day with a nutritious, fiber rich meal such as oats can help with maintaining a healthy weight.
2. Oats can significantly reduces LDL cholesterol.
3. Slows the rise in the blood sugar levels after a meal, hence making it the best choice for diabetics.
In order to make this oats chapathi, Powdered oats needs to be ready. Take 3 to 4 cups of normal Oats (I have used Quaker oats), and fine grind it into a blender and store in a air-tight container. I always have stock of this powdered oats for quick preparation of this chapathi anytime.
The oats powder has a coarse texture, hence this oats chapathi may not have a soft texture like the normal chapathi. Also when rolling the chapathi you need not be disappointed if you don't get a perfect round shape, due to the coarseness. However the chapathi softness and taste is guaranteed.
The garam masala, cumin seeds, turmeric powder are optional ingredients, just for adding the flavour. You can omit them if you want.
Ingredients:
1. Wheat flour - 1 Cup
2. Powdered Oats - 1 Cup
3. Cumin seeds - 1/4 tsp
4. Garam masala powder - a pinch
5. Turmeric powder - a pinch
6. Salt - 1 tsp
7. Water - 1/2 cup
Method:
1. Add all the above ingredients from 1 to 6 in a bowl and mix well. Add water little by little and knead to make a soft chapathi dough. Set this dough aside for 5 to 10 minutes if you want.
2. Divide the chapathi into small balls of equal shape and roll it, dusting it with little wheat flour, as we do for a normal chapathi.
3. Heat the non-stick tava, place one chapathi on it, and wait till small brown spots appear, then turn the chapathi around and repeat the same.
4. Spread little oil over the chapathi and toss it around and do the same on the other side. Cook the chapathi until even brown spots appear on both the sides and then remove.
5. Serve hot with any dhal or gravy side dish.
