Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment :) Mmmm…that sounds delicious!<br /><br />Hi Grace! It is really good! When you think of it, oatmeal is sort of a blank canvas, just like rice (which we have both sweet and savory versions of as well) :)ChichaJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14143881216169572999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14448190.post-89137503353835010822011-04-07T10:19:26.252+08:002011-04-07T10:19:26.252+08:00Hmmmm interesting idea!

I ...I stumbled upon your blog, and I am glad I did! I love breakfast food! Oh yes, savory oatmeal is simply the best. In fact, these days, I have savory oatmeal more than sweet oatmeal.For those who have not tried it, you really have to try it!<br /><br />My all time favourite combination will be old fashioned oats + chicken stock + pepper, topped with toasted sunflower seeds, dippy egg, and scallions. I'm really lazy, so I cook mine in the microwave. I have yet to try it with steel cut oats, but I would imagine it to be equally wonderful- if not, better!Kaylahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06637597824412275363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14448190.post-20602049190316275872011-04-06T01:05:57.727+08:002011-04-06T01:05:57.727+08:00So brilliant, and so obvious, but never occurred t...So brilliant, and so obvious, but never occurred to me before. I imagine it would also be great with chilis, fresh cilantro, or perhaps olive oil and lemon. Maybe a sharp cheddar and chives. Now that you've got me thinking, I may just play around with it until I've mastered oatmeal risotto!

I was very curious too and I’m so happy I finally tried it! It’s a whole other level of oatmeal :)<br /><br />Hi Nayna! Oh I added more as I ate through it :) Definitely use rolled (old fashioned) oats…I don’t like instant (or quick) either. These instant things have nothing on homemade! Just a few good, quality ingredients go a long way :)<br /><br />Hi Sanjeeta! I really loved it…give it a try!<br /><br />Hi Jules! I must try it with some poached eggs soon!<br /><br />Hi Brilynn!

A few years ago a friend showed me this savory oatmeal: she sauteed spring onions, almonds, and kale in olive oil then added rolled whole oats. After the oats were coated in the oil, she added a little water and a good splash of soy sauce, but not so much liquid as you would normally use for porridge. It only took a minute or two for the oats to absorb the liquid, then voila!<br /><br />I will definitely try this parmesan version, thanks!Stephfrethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00401528107803391153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14448190.post-38178187451848470872011-03-31T10:25:55.597+08:002011-03-31T10:25:55.597+08:00Now you've got me thinking about eggs and baco...Now you've got me thinking about eggs and bacon oatmeal!

Think about it…savory oatmeal may just surprise you :) That is funny about the mangoes…although I must say, and I may be a little biased here, but I love our mangoes and think they are one of the best in the world! Interesting about the champorado/champurrado – ours is made with rice because it is our most common starch :)<br /><br />Hi Pam! Now that I’ve tried this I have to say that cheesy oats are GOOD!<br /><br />Hi Brittany! It truly is versatile…both in its sweet and savory preparations!<br /><br />Hi Hector! I am a very big fan of oatmeal and I love that we can have it in so many ways. With honey is definitely lovely :) When I travel I also miss our mangoes!<br /><br />Hi Gattina! You are too sweet!!! The egg was just calling me but I guess my EQ won out in the end ;) (I love condensed milk here…will try that too!)<br /><br />Hi Didi! Sweet and savory at the same time? I haven’t tried that yet but the first thing that comes to mind would be bacon and honey! Hmmm…that may just be my breakfast tomorrow!<br /><br />Hi Rosa! Try it, it’s really awesome!<br /><br />Hi 3748 Miles! OK…I really need to try it with that egg already! :) Oatmeal cakes sound like something I would really like for breakfast too!<br /><br />Hi Midge! OMG…congee = the original savory porridge!<br /><br />Katrina!!! You are the reason for this fantastic discovery! So, firstly, THANK YOU! Yes, yes, and yes! Next I am going to fry an egg in browned butter and pour the whole lot of it on the oatmeal and parmesan :) :) I love steel cut oats…although I alternate between that and old fashioned rolled, just because I like variety ;)<br /><br />Hi Wendy! My goodness, that was fast! You made it before I could even answer your comment :) Glad you loved it too!ChichaJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14143881216169572999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14448190.post-88080000936407625272011-03-27T21:45:10.534+08:002011-03-27T21:45:10.534+08:00What a wonderful idea.

Doesn't it just open your eyes to a whole new way of enjoying oatmeal, and make you excited to try it with other ingredients?! :-) After I first had it, I had savory oatmeal for dinner three times in one week, so that I could experiment. So far, my favorite was with butter, a fried egg, and parmesan. REALLY decadent-tasting, with the runny yolk and butter giving it the most indulgent texture! <br /><br />I just bought steel-cut oats, and haven't opened it yet because I want to finish the other kinds of oatmeal I still have. (Have you tried the Better Oats brand? I'm loving the chai and dark chocolate flavors -- to the latter, I even added peanut butter!) I think you're right about the steel-cut oats being suited to a savory prep; I'll do that next. :-)Katrinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14448190.post-9859369598539702362011-03-27T17:54:07.251+08:002011-03-27T17:54:07.251+08:00This is like a childhood flashback - only what I r...This is like a childhood flashback - only what I remember is a mixture of oatmeal and pearl barley cooked like congee in chicken broth!Midgehttp://sybdive.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14448190.post-21473976390011898452011-03-27T17:30:55.158+08:002011-03-27T17:30:55.158+08:00I've been at this recently too!
