Serves 4-5
Rava getting roasted in ghee
chopped and kept ready
roasted rava kept aside in a bowl
Cooking oil heated in a non stick pan, hing powder and mustard seeds seasoned
urad and channa dhals added
ginger, curry leaves, green and red chillies enter the pan too
now, chopped onions
sauteed well
measured water added, salt to taste added
carrots and peas, cooked in microwave steamer , added. You can cook the veggies in pressure cooker for 1 whistle and add too. Any other veggies of your choice can be added, like bell peppers. I generally avoid beans, because, then it becomes hard to differentiate the green chillies from the beans.
Water is getting heated and about to boil
now, the roasted rava added, and stirred without stopping briskly, so that lumps will not form
stirred nicely
close with a lid, flames on the lowest
2 tsps ghee added towards the end
lemon juice added
Cooked well, the aroma will be permeating all over the house.....hunger pangs getting started....
Perfect!!!
Serve with any chutney of your choice, or a bowl of curds...here, all wanted to eat with some chips...whatever the side may be, this is a very tasty upma...
