Wheat
Rava Upma | Broken Wheat Upma | Cracked Wheat Upma is a healthy, filling breakfast and can be made
in minutes. Normally I go for this when I don’t have idli batter or feeling
bored of making something laborious. I prefer white rava upma over Samba
Godumai Rava Upma but the latter is healthier and hence I changed my mind to
make this once in a while. This is very good for diabetic people as it helps to
start the day with a filling breakfast and those who are on diet can also go
for this recipe since the sambha godhumai is rich in fibre.
Ingredients:
Broken
Wheat Rava – 1 cup
Water
– 2 ½ cups
Onion
(finely chopped) – ½ cup
Ginger
(finely chopped) – 1 tbsp
Salt
to taste
For
seasoning:
Oil
– 2 tbsp
Mustard
– 1 tsp
Bengal
gram dhal (Kadalai Paruppu) – 2 tbsp
Red
chillies – 2 to 3 Nos
Curry
leaves – few
Method:
Dry
roast the rava in a kadai in simmer
until you get a nice aroma and keep it aside.
In
a heavy bottomed kadai or Non-stick pan, pour oil and season the items given
one by one “for seasoning”.
Then
add ginger and sauté for a while. Add onion and sauté till it becomes
translucent.
Add
water and bring it to rolling boil.
Then
add roasted rava and cook in high flame until the upma thickens.
Mix
well, simmer the flame and cook for about 5 minutes by covering with a lid and
stirring in between.
Open
the lid and cook until you get the upma consistency as shown in the pic.
Your
healthy breakfast is ready to serve with any chutney of your choice! I like
Coconut chutney with this Godhumai Rava
Upma.
Note:
- The water measurement I have given above will give a non-sticky upma and this consistency tastes the best for Wheat Rava Upma unlike the regular white rava upma. If you like it mushy, you can add 3 cups of water.
