Rava Upma

This is a simple recipe to make rava upma. It can be made with or without turmeric powder. I will be adding photos soon.


Ingredients:
Roasted Rava - 2 cups
Onion - 1 medium
Tomatoes  - 2 small or 1 medium
Green Chillies - 3 medium (chopped)
Oil -2 tbsp
Mustard Seeds - 1/2tsp
Curry Leaves - 4 to 5
Salt to taste
Turmeric Powder - 1tsp (optional)

For Garnishing:
Grated Coconut
Few Coriander Leaves
Lemon Juice - 1tsp 

Serves: 3

Procedure:

Heat oil in a kadhai. After half a minute put mustard seeds and fry till they start tempering. Add curry leaves and green chillies to it and fry for a minute.
Now add the cut onion to it and let it fry till it turns golden brown.
Add the turmeric powder now to it. I would recommend making the upma without turmeric powder for a comparatively better taste.
Add the salt and tomatoes and let it fry for 2 minutes.
Now add the roasted rava in the kadhai and mix well.
Add 1 cup (300ml as per consistency) of water in the kadhai, mix well and steam for 2-3 minutes.
Rava Upma is ready.
Garnish with lemon juice, coriander leaves and grated coconut.

Tip: Instead of using green chillies, one can use red dried chillies for a comparatively better taste.
