Wheat Rava Upma has almost become a regular at home these days. But until a few years back I never appreciated the wheat rava.
This week for the final day of BM #31, as part of the moderator's choice, I made this upma from Srivalli's space, Spicing Your Life.
Ingredients -
Godhuma Rava / Wheat Rava 1 cup
Water 1 1/2 - 2 cups
Onions, chopped 1/2 cup
Carrots, diced 1/2 cup
Green Beans, chopped 1/4 cup
Peas, shelled 3 Tbsp
Ginger, grated (Optional) 1 tsp
Green Chillies, chopped 2-3
Salt as needed
Seasoning (Oil 1 Tbsp, Chana Dal 1 tsp, Urad Dal 1 tsp, Mustard seeds 1/2 tsp, Curry leaves few)
Method Of Preparation -
In a heated kadai/wok, add oil and add the seasoning. After the mustard seeds pop, saute the onions until they are golden brown. Add ginger if using.
Add the chopped vegetables, green chillies and saute for a couple minutes. Add water and let it come to a rolling boil.
Add the wheat rava and mix well. Sprinkle salt and cover.
Reduce the heat and let the wheat rava cook. Remove the lid after 10 minutes and serve hot.
Note - The time taken depends on the type of wheat rava used. The original recipe says that the rava gets cooked in 2 minutes, whereas the rava I used took about 10 minutes.
