Notes

  • For a vegan version, replace ghee with coconut oil or any neutral cooking oil.
  • Ensure oats are completely cooled before storing to prevent condensation.
  • Add a splash of water when reheating to restore consistency.
  • A pinch of asafoetida (hing) can be added during tempering for extra flavor and digestive benefits.
