A simple oven-cooked oat “risotto” with black , red bell pepper, onion, garlic, olive oil and fresh basil.
The oats are “cooking oats”, very delish and one of my favourite things to eat.
Rice with a bunch of stuff is one of my favorite genders of food
That looks amazing.
Do you have a recipe?
Not really, but I’ll list what I used in it, ballpark-edition:
3 deciliters of cooking oats, a can of black beans (230grams drained), one whole red bell pepper diced, one onion diced, garlic to taste & olive oil to taste. Spice it with stuff like black pepper, herbs or whatever feels nice.
These are mixed and spread in an oven pan that has a bit if olive oil in it as coating.
Pour over about 700ml of hot water with a stock cube melted in it.
Cook for about 45mins or so, oven was 175C. Add water if it goes too dry, but some crispyness on top and bottom is the goal. It has a fried rice/paella type of vibe.
This can be done in numerous spice variations and with different beans and veg. Tomatoes or tomato paste work well too.
These oats also make a really good pan “risotto”.
Thankyou!
Do you think it would work with no oil at all?
Might stick a bit more to the pan. Maybe adding a bit more water could help so it doesn’t?
Could also do this in a kettle on the stove and just use water, it’s more like risotto then. I’d pan fry the veggies and beans and throw them in towards the end if doing this.
Risoato
Looks really tasty
