Oats upma

I love oats porridge and my husband doesn't like it at all. With all the goodness that oats contains, I can't think of not having oats at all. I had to think of some way other than making two separate dishes for breakfast. I made this oats upma and voila! he liked it. 

Ingredients:
Oats - 11/2 cups
Hot water -1 cup
Oil - 11/2 tablespoon
Mustard seeds - ½ teaspoon
Cashew nuts - 1 tbsp
Onion - 1 finely cut
Green chilli - 1 finely cut
Turmeric powder,
Chilli powder,
Garam masala powder,
Salt.
Lemon - ½
Coriander leaves - 1 tbsp finely cut

Method:
- Roast the oats till brown and keep aside.
- Heat oil in a kadai, add mustard. When they splutter, add cashews, then onion       and green chilli.
- When onion becomes transparent, add the masala powders, salt and roasted oats.
- Stir well and sprinkle the hot water.
- Stir, cover and cook till done. (Open in between and stir.)
- Remove from fire, add lemon juice an garnish with coriander leaves.
