  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup blueberries
  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  • Turn the heat off, mix in the jaggery, cover and let the oatmeal sit for 5 minutes.

Notes

The oats: Do not use quick-cooking or instant oats, as the resulting texture will be paste-like.
The Jaggery: Also known as shakkar, this is a South Asian unrefined cane sugar with a molasses-like flavor. If you have trouble sourcing it, the best alternative is dark brown sugar.
Cooking the oatmeal: Turn the stove off after 5 minutes to ensure a creamy texture.
