This savory semolina dish is not only easy to prepare but also packed with flavors and nutrition. Perfect for a quick breakfast or a light meal, Upma is sure to become a staple in your kitchen.

Ingredients:

1 cup semolina (rava)
2 tablespoons oil or ghee
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon chana dal
1 tablespoon urad dal
1-2 green chilies, finely chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
1-2 sprigs curry leaves
1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
1 small carrot, finely chopped
1/2 cup green peas
1/4 cup cashew nuts (optional)
2 1/2 cups water
Salt to taste
Fresh coriander leaves, chopped (for garnish)
Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions:

Roast the Semolina: In a dry pan, roast the semolina on medium heat until it turns light golden and aromatic. Set aside.

Prepare the Tempering: In the same pan, heat oil or ghee. Add mustard seeds and let them splutter. Then, add cumin seeds, chana dal, urad dal, and cashew nuts. Fry until the dals turn golden brown.

Sauté Vegetables: Add chopped green chilies, onions, curry leaves, and grated ginger. Sauté until the onions turn translucent. Add chopped carrots and green peas, and cook for a few minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Cook the Upma: Pour in 2 1/2 cups of water and add salt to taste. Bring the water to a boil. Gradually add the roasted semolina, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Cook on low heat until the water is fully absorbed and the semolina is cooked through.

Garnish and Serve: Turn off the heat and let the Upma sit for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.

Tips:

Adjust the water quantity based on your preferred consistency of Upma.
You can add more vegetables like beans, capsicum, or tomatoes to make it more nutritious.
Serve Upma with coconut chutney or pickle for an enhanced flavor.
