RECIPE

In a medium pot on medium-high heat, melt butter and sauté ginger, garlic, and spices, until it smells slightly nutty and fragrant.

Add zucchini and stir occasionally. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until tender. Remove half and set aside for the topping.

Add coconut milk and water to the pot and bring to a boil. Stir in the oats and cook on medium-low for about 6-8 minutes, or until softened to your liking. Taste for salt and pepper.
