Upma

                                   

Upma is a very delicious snack made of Sooji, rava or Semolina. Though it is a South Indian dish, it is equally popular in North and East India. It is also very simple to make. It provides very good nutrition and easy to digest.


Ingredients:  Semolina or Rava or sooji 1 large cup, one large onion chopped, one green chili chopped,  pure ghee 4 spoons, salt to taste, one tsp black mustard seeds, capsicum half piece, Chana and moong daal one table spoon each,  carrot one small piece, curry leaves.
                       
Method:  
Dry roast rava until it is hot to touch. Chop onion, carrot, capsicum and green chilies finely. Heat 3 tsp of ghee, add mustard seeds, when it splutters, add Chana and moong daal, and curry leaves.
When daal turns golden brown, add chopped onions, carrots, capsicum and green chilies.
Sauté until onions turn transparent. Then add 2 cups of water, ghee and salt as per taste.
When the water starts boiling, reduce the flame to low and add roasted rava/ sooji gradually with one hand and keep stirring with your other hand.
After the rava absorbs all the water, cover it and cook on low flame for 6-7 minutes. Keep stirring in between.
You can use urad daal also in place of Chana and moong daal. Also you can use ginger if you like it.

Delicious Upma is ready to be served. You can have it with coconut chutney or dhaniya chutney or tomato chili sauce.
