Instant Vegetable-Oats Adai

Another quick, instant & healthy breakfast idea for the busy mornings! Loaded with fiber-rich oats and vegetables, couple of adai can go a long way between two meals.

Check out my other "Oats adai" recipe here which requires atleast a couple of hours of planning & prep ahead, but this recipe of adai is "super" instant and the batter can be put together in less than 20 mins, which is a BIG plus! Also, adai prepared in the traditional way can get very heavy because of the rice & channa dal in it. But, this instant adai is very light and works pretty well for breakfast too!
