Instructions
- In a kadai, dry roast the Semolina on medium flame for 3-4 mins, you will notice that the Semolina flakes will start to separate and seem a little rougher . Thats when you should consider it done and set aside in a flat plate to cool
- In the same Kadai, heat some oil, add the mustard seeds, Elaichi, clove, cinnamon, ginger garlic paste, green chillies and Onion. Saute for 3-4 mins
- Next add the coriander leaves and stir. Cook till you get a nice fragrant smell of the whole spices.
- Once the onions are cooked , add in the tomatoes
- Add in the chopped carrots, beans and peas next. Cook on a medium flame for 2-3 mins
- Once the raw smell of the veggies are all gone, add in the spice powders
- Add 1/4 cup of water to avoid the spices from burning and cook till the veggies are half done
- Add 3 cups of water for every 1 cup of Semolina that you would use for making the upma. Add salt as per taste, check for spice levels and bring the mixture to a boil
- Add in the roasted Semolina and stir in immediately , this is to avoid any lumps in the mixture. Remember this needs to be done together without any delay
- Lower the heat, give it one final stir and cook the mixture on simmer for 6-10 minutes with a closed lid
- Your Upma is ready to be served - Hot Hot Hot and yummy !!
