Ingredients:
There are many ways Upma is prepared; indeed, every upma cook usually will impart a small difference in flavour when making the Upma. This variation is obtained by varying or emphasising some particular spice, thereby making for variation. A typical recipe is included here:


Ingredients
Sooji or Wheat Rava (Semolina) (1 cup)
Cooking oil (1 tbsp)
Mustard seeds (1 tsp)
Cumin seeds (1 tsp)
Ginger root (1 tsp, grated)
Green chillies (3-5 med, chopped)
Chopped onions (1 med, chopped) (some people may omit this for cultural reasons)
Salt to taste
Vegetables of choice: Peas, carrots, eggplant, potatoes, cauliflower, cabbage, tomatoes (3/4 cup, chopped)
Grated coconut (3-4 tbsp, optional)
Cilantro leaves (3-4 tsp, chopped, optional)
Lemon juice (2 tsp, optional)
Instructions:

1.take a heavy bottomed pan and dry roast rava until it just begins to turn brown, then keep aside.
2. In a large saucepan/wok, heat the cooking oil.
3. Add mustard seeds and wait for them to sputter. Then add cumin, ginger, green chillies and chopped onions and fry until onions carmelise.
4. Add vegetables, salt and 1.5 cups of water, and bring to boil.
5. Add the roasted rava, turn down the heat, and mix quickly to avoid lumps forming.
6. The upma is done when all the water is absorbed by the rava.
7. Garnish with grated coconut, chopped cilantro leaves and lemon juice.


The Rava used for this must be the large-grained, as Upma prepared with fine Rava tends to become soggy.


Eat it with Chutney and pickle and Dahi (Yoghurt)
