Default Semiya Upma - in combination with corn, here.

I am giving this with boiled corn ( you can substitute any vegetable, here).

I plan to give rava upma with onions. They are interchangeable.

Since here there is no vigorous boiling involved, you can use a veesl like what I have shown.

Always try to buy pre roasted semiya for convenience.

Otherwise smear 2 tsp oil over semiya in a plate & MW Hi for 1 mte & keep.

Semiya - 1 cup

Boiled corn - ½ cup

Salt, hing

Water - 1 cup

Green chillies, chopped fine - 2 tsp

Ginger, chopped fine - 1 tsp

Curry leaves - few

To temper:

Oil - 3 tsp

Mustard seeds - ½ tsp

Urad dhal - 1 tsp

Gram dhal - 1 tsp

Boil 1 cup of water & keep ready.

In a bowl, mix oil with mustard seeds & both dhals.

Partly cover & MW hi for 2 mts.

Remove, stir well, add roasted semiya, green chillies, ginger & curry leaves.

Cover & MW hi for 1 mte.

Remove, add readily kept boiled water, salt & hing.

Cover & MW hi for 3 mts.

Just allow a resting time of 5 mts.

Open, add a tsp ghee for a good flavour ( this is optional) & serve hot.

Please remember that MW timings may vary slightly for different ovens.
