Preparation Steps
  1. In a medium mixing bowl or jar, combine rolled oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, honey, and spices: cardamom, cinnamon, turmeric, and ginger. Add a pinch of salt and stir until well incorporated.
  2. Cover the bowl or jar tightly and refrigerate for at least six hours, preferably overnight, to let the oats and chia seeds absorb the liquid.
  3. When ready to eat, stir the mixture well. Add a splash of milk if it's too thick for your liking.
  4. Top with chopped nuts and dried mango or raisins to create a delightful contrast of flavors.
  5. Optionally drizzle more honey and sprinkle cinnamon before serving. Enjoy your nourishing Indian Overnight Oats!
