How to make PERFECT SOFT & FLUFFY UPMA | Rava Upma Recipe

You know how most of the days we run to office/ college/ work in
such hurry that we barely remember to have breakfast? I feel you.
Been there, done that!
Spending a lot of time in kitchen is not so easy especially while
you are a working mom or a bachelor trying to manage your food
lifestyle and college assignments.
But hey, what if I tell you that you could spend just 10 minutes of
your precious morning time in the kitchen to make healthy and
nutritious breakfast?
Introducing to you,
RAVA UPMA IN SOUTH INDIAN STYLE -
Preparation time: 5 mins
Cooking time: 15 mins
- Before we get started make sure you have the following ready
in the kitchen:
• 1 cup rava (fine variety)
• ⅓ cup finely chopped onions
• 1 teaspoon chopped green chillies
• 1 teaspoon finely chopped ginger
• Carrot - ½ cup
• Grated coconut - ½ cup
• 8 to 10 curry leaves
• 10 to 12 cashews
• 1 teaspoon urad dal.
PROCEDURE -
- In a pan, heat 1 teaspoon ghee and 1 teaspoon coconut oil. You
could use sunflower oil or peanut oil or safflower oil or any
neutral tasting oil.
- As you lower the heat, add 1 teaspoon of mustard seeds and
2no’s of dried red chilli. Fry them until you hear the
crackling noise.
- Now add 1 teaspoon urad dal, 2 no’s of green chilli and 1no.
of finely grated ginger.
- Sauté until they turn slightly brown.
- Now add one finely chopped onion and curry leaves for the
flavour.
- Saute till the onion turns translucent
- Add ½ cup sliced carrot and add 7 no’s of cashews.
- To this, add 1 teaspoon of sugar, ¼ cup of grated coconut and
mix well.
- Once you add roasted rava, stir and mix immediately so that
the roasted rava gets mixed evenly with the water.
- To prevent stickiness, keep the water ratio 1:1.25.
- Add 1 ¼ cup of hot water mixed evenly with the mixture.
- Quickly stir and mix very well. The rava grains will absorb
water, swell, and get cooked.
- Cover and allow the rava upma to steam for 2 to 3 minutes on a
low heat
- After it is cooked, dry and fluff the upma with ghee.
