Instructions:
**(Dry Roast Rava/Sooji)
- Take a dry pan on medium heat.
-Add Sooji/ Rava and Dry roast for 3 to 5 minutes. Stir often while roasting the rava.
- When it is done turn off the flame and set aside to cool.
Cooking Method:
- In a pan heat 4 tbst oil. When the oil becomes hot, lower the heat. Add mustard seeds.
- Once Mustard Seeds start to pop add Urad Dal and Chana Dal.
- Cook till the Dal's starts to turn brown.
- Now add dry red chillies and curry leaves.
- Cook till raw aroma of ginger disappears.
- Then add Onion, Green Chillies and Cook till onions are translucent.
- Once onion are translucent, add tomato and until it becomes soft.
- Now Add Water (200 ml), Salt, little bit of sugar (to balance the taste) and chopped coriander leaves and Mix them well.
- Sugar is optional and you can skip it. I personally prefer a slight sweet taste in the upma and hence I add it.
- Bring the water to a rolling boil on a medium to high flame, then reduce the flame to low heat.
- Pour the roasted rava in a very slow stream with one hand and constantly stir the water with the other hand. This incorporates the rava to the water without turning lumpy.
- Stir well and check for any lumps. Break up if any. Be cautious & quick at this moment, as it begins to splash.
- This is done in parts so the Sooji can absorb water Properly.
- Once the is absorbed, cook 5 to 6 minutes on medium to low flame.
- Now turn off the flame and allow the Upma to cool down a bit. Garnish with fried/roasted cashew nuts.
- Serve Upma hot with Plain Yellow Dal or with Sambar.
- Enjoy it in your breakfast meal or eat it as is anytime.
