Savory Oatmeal Recipe with Miso and Fried Egg
This Savory Oatmeal recipe is my go-to breakfast almost every single day! People usually think of oatmeal as sweet, but I love to switch it up with a fried egg, miso paste, parmesan cheese, soy sauce, or whatever else sounds good to you!

Equipment
- 1 Small pot
- 1 Small Pan
- 1 Wooden Spoon or Rubber Spatula
- 1 Sharp knife and cutting board
Ingredients
- ½ cup Quick-cooking Steel-cut Oats
- 1¼ cup Water or stock/broth of choice
- 1 tablespoon White miso paste
- 2-4 tbsps Parmesan cheese plus more for garnish
- ½ cup Kale chopped and stems removed
- 1 Egg fried over easy, or cooked to your preference
- 1 tablespoon Chives thinly sliced, for garnish
Instructions
- In a small pot, bring about 1 ¼ cups water to a simmer, then add the quick cooking oats. Stir.
- Add a pinch of salt (about ½ teaspoon) then add the chopped kale. Stir until kale is wilted and fully combined.
- Add the miso paste and stir or whisk until it is fully dissolved into the oatmeal. Stir in the grated parmesan cheese and add black pepper to your liking.
- In a separate pan, add about 1 tablespoon of butter or oil over medium-high heat. Crack 1 egg into the pan and cook until the whites are set and the yolk is still runny. Or, continue cooking for longer if you prefer a more done egg. You may also wish to flip the egg midway through cooking to get a more even cook, or you can add a small amount of water (1 tsp) to the pan and cover with a lid to help the cooking process.
- Serve the hot savory oats in a bowl, and add the fried egg on top.
- Garnish with more cheese and thinly sliced chives or green onions.
Notes
- Don't undercook the oats. I always prefer to err on the side of overcooking the oats rather than undercook. This helps create a creamy and satisfying texture.
- Be sure not to use pre-packaged oatmeal packets. These are usually pre-flavored with things like brown sugar or maple syrup, which would not combine well with the savory flavors.
