Steps

  1. Start by peeling and slicing the banana into 1/2" slices.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the cooked rice, oatmeal, and onion.
  3. Heat about 1 teaspoon of oil in a medium-sized nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add the banana slices to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add the rice and oatmeal mixture to the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until warm.
  6. Transfer the rice oatmeal mixture to a bowl and top with the yogurt and banana slices. Serve.

Tips for Banana Rice Oatmeal Bowl

  • Look for lightly golden banana edges and a soft, tender center; avoid cooking until the slices collapse.
  • The bowl should be warm and creamy, not dry. If it thickens as it sits, stir in a spoonful of yogurt just before eating.
  • Use a nonstick skillet and a flexible spatula to turn the banana gently without breaking the slices.

Drink pairing

A dry sparkling wine
Its crisp, lively character balances the banana's sweetness and the creamy yogurt.

0% option: Unsweetened black tea

Storage

Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours in a covered container and eat within 3–4 days. Reheat until steaming hot; add the yogurt after reheating.

Frequently asked questions

Can I make this ahead?

It is best freshly made, since the banana softens and the grains thicken as they stand. You can prepare the cooked rice and oatmeal ahead and keep them refrigerated.

How can I tell when the bowl is ready?

The grain mixture should be evenly warm, and the banana should look softened with lightly golden edges while still holding its shape.

Is this bowl meant to be served hot or cold?

Serve the rice and oatmeal mixture warm, with the yogurt added on top for a cool, creamy contrast.
