Upma

Hubbies Favorite breakfast item. He can eat this 24x7 for all meals. I have my own twist in this one. This is such a quick and easy breakfast or lunch item. I usually double the recipe so everyone can eat it through out the day as a snack or even as lunch.

1 1/2 cup sooji (rava)

Buttermilk (yogurt diluted with water)

To prepare upma, roast rava on medium flame for 8 minutes(I buy roasted upma so I skip this step).
Soak this in the bowl of buttermilk and salt.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large pan. Add mustard, green chillies, red chillies, curry leaves, and fry for 1 minute.
Add onions, and coconut and saute on high flame for 3-4 minutes. On a lower flame cover and cook for 5 minutes. Add soaked rava.
Stir well to combine.
Cover and cook this for 7-8 mins until rava is cooked well and all the moisture is absorbed.
Open the pan and fluff up the upma. Serve hot. Garnish with cilantro. We love to
