A while back, Cheesie posted a few recipes using oats. I wanted to try out the recipe using rolled oats, but not being an oat person, I didn't have any oats available... and it took me a while to get some. So I finally tried it out today.
The resulting dish, which was supposed to mimic risotto, looked rather like porridge. (and technically it is porridge...)
The photo above was taken right after pouring it into the plate, and below is the dish after I had stirred it a bit with a spoon. The oats continued to soak up the liquid... at the end it was even drier than this.
I found that it tasted pretty good... which I guess is basically due to the sausage and mushrooms. I'm pretty sure I could make the same dish using pasta too...maybe when I have no more oats.
