Recipe Tips
Oats: I highly recommend using rolled oats for this soup recipe. However, you can also use quick oats or steel-cut oats if you prefer. If you use quick oats, roast them for only a minute; if you use steel-cut oats, roast them for about 5 minutes.
Adding More or Less Oats: Sometimes, I add up to one cup of oats to keep the soup thicker, creamier, and filling. Vice versa, to keep it lighter, add only ¼ cup of rolled oats. Add less or more water depending on how much oats you use.
Make It Oil-Free: To make oil-free soup, skip the oil and dry roast the rolled oats in a nonstick pan. Then, continue following the recipe’s next steps.
Consistency: You can make the soup thinner or thicker, according to your preference. So, while cooking the soup, check the consistency and add more water as needed.
Vegetables: To make this oats vegetable soup, you can add vegetables of your choice, such as green beans, green peas, and colored bell peppers.
Hot Sauce: I use hot sauce without onion and garlic. So, use whichever hot sauce you find, green or red, without onion and garlic. But if you do not have hot sauce without onion and garlic, add green chili paste or red pepper flakes to taste.
Serving: This soup can be consumed as a meal without accompaniment (for weight loss), and the recipe is suitable for two people. However, if you serve it as a side, it can be served to three to four people.
