Over the weekend I tried making Daliya Upma, a dish that can be very good for breakfast as well as tea time snack or even a light meal if you are not in a mood for a regular meal. It is pretty simple to make, highly nutritious and tasty too, so I hope that I have tempted you enough to want to try it.
Ingredients
1/2 cup Daliya (coarsely ground wheat)
1/4 cup rava (suji)
2 green chillies finely chopped
1/2 inch piece ginger finely chopped
1 small onion finely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped and steamed mixed vegetables (carrot, green peas etc.)
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
6-8 curry leaves
juice of half lemon
few coriander leaves finely chopped
3 tbsp oil
Salt to taste
Procedure
Heat oil in a thick-bottomed kadai, add mustard seeds, ginger and curry leaves, allow seeds to splutter. Reduce flame and add chopped onion. Saute for 2 - 3 minutes. Now add daliya and suji. Again saute for a minute or two. Now put in the vegetables and stir again for a minute or two. Add salt to taste and 2 1/2 cups of boiling water. Cook for a minute or two on low flame covered, till the mixture is solid but soft. Turn off flame, add lemon juice and serve garnished with coriander leaves. You can serve this with coconut chutney or yoghurt and papad.
