Tip ... and the reason why I started making upma often - Make dry roasted suji mix and store in air tight jar. When require to make upma, use mix, it takes less than ten minutes!
Suji mix -
1/2 tsp ghee
Rai seeds
Curry leaves
Suji
Urad dal
broken cashews
Chhonko rai seeds and curry leaves in 1/2 tsp ghee. Add suji and roast till browns. Halfway through, add urad dal and let brown slightly, then add cashews and roast 1-2 min more.
Tip - urad dal and cashews burn quickly, so add them when suji is half done, in that order.
Cool and store the mix in air tight jar.
When making upma -
Chopped onions
Chopped green chillies,
Chopped ginger
Salt to taste
Chopped tomatoes
Heat oil in kadhai, add all the above ingredients and fry for 2-3 min. Add roasted suji mix and 2 - 2 1/2 times amount of water. Add lemon juice and salt to taste. Cover and cook on low heat till done. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and dash of lemon juice.
