ingredients
directions
- Melt the margarine in a skillet or sauce pan over medium heat.
- Meanwhile, mix the egg and the oatmeal in a small bowl. This may seem like a lot of oats compared to the amount of egg, but just keep stirring until the oats are coated.
- Add the oats mixture to the skillet.
- Stirring constantly, cook about 5 minutes until the oats are lightly browned ("golden"). They should be dry and separated.
- (At this point, the oat mixture can be stored in a tightly covered container until you are ready to finish cooking. Note that the eggs are cooked, so it doesn't require refrigeration).
- Add the water, stir, and cover.
- Cook about 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally, until liquid evaporates.
- Make the recipe your own by adding dried or fresh fruit, cinnamon, sauteed peppers or onions, meat or vegetable broth instead of water, and so on.

I have been making this wonderfully versatile side dish for years. I usually sauté about a half of onion just til translucent in the butter and salt, and pepper to season, then instead of addicting water, I use chicken broth. Can add celery and poultry seasoning to make a side dish stuffing, or apples and sugar, cinnamon and juice. Peppers, onions, cilantro for a Mexican twist. The possibilities are endless!
