After that, put one tablespoon of ginger-garlic paste and chopped green chilies in it and stir continuously with a slotted spoon.
After stirring continuously for about 30 seconds with a spoon, put chopped tomatoes in the pan and make them soft by stirring continuously for about 1 minute. After the tomatoes become soft, put chopped beans, carrots, and peas in the pan stir with a spoon, and mix them all. After that, add salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and one and a half teaspoon of roasted fine masala as per taste in the pan and mix them well after that pour 4 cups of water into it.
Step 6
When the water starts boiling, add roasted oats little by little into the water and mix continuously add all the oats while mixing. When the oats are well mixed with other ingredients in the pan, then after slowing down the flame, cover it with a lid and let it cook for about 1 minute.
Step 7

Add half a teaspoon of garam masala, lemon juice as per taste, and one tablespoon of butter to the oats and mix them well. Take out the oats in a serving bowl and garnish them with finely chopped coriander. So our delicious healthy Oats are ready, serve it hot.
