ABOUT Coconut Upma RECIPE

Ok, now this is again from mommy's cookbook passed on from my granny. This tastes great with raw finely chopped onions. It tastes even better the next day.

Ingredients Serving: 2

Raw Rice 1 cup
Coconut 1/2 cup
Red Chillies 5
Coriander Seeds 1/2 tbsp
Tamarind gooseberry sized
Jaggery 1/2 tsp
Oil 3 tbsp
Salt to Taste
Mustard Seeds 1 tsp
Red Chillies 2

Instructions

Clean and wash raw rice. Soak it for 1 hour in enough water.
After 1 hour, grind rice, coconut pieces, red chillies, coriander seeds and salt to a smooth paste in a mixer.
To this paste, add tamarind extract and jaggery. Mix well without lumps. Make the mixture watery (similar to rava dosa batter).
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan. Temper mustard seeds and red chillies.
Lower the flame and add the ground mixture slowly.
Keep stirring often and add remaining oil in stages. The mixture starts to come together and solidifies.
When the whole mass changes to a light golden colour and tastes cooked, switch off the flame.
Garnish with finely chopped onions.
