Lunch Box Idea

Hi Friends,

I tried rava/sooji upma so many times but never succeeded. Taste was always good but it was like eating namkeen halwa. Few days my father was admitted to the hospital, he was down with Dengue so in breakfast they mostly served upma/Poha etc as they were supposed to have lite food. Now he is back to home and asked me to make Upma. I was so confused that how should i say that i cant make it perfectly. So without replying to him i made poha and served. He said i asked for poha and i said Dad-i will make it tomorrow as i am in hurry and it will take time to make upma. He said Ok. Yesterday i goggles so many sites and noted down some points to remember for making fluffy upma.

Today morning i set to prepare it. I was preparing it patiently so that i can get fluffy upma as i had at so many restaurants. My good luck was there that it came out perfect. Pictures may not speak that much as i took it in hurry. But the taste and texture was perfect. My kids enjoyed it with tomato sauce. There are few points i mentioned in the notes which needs to remember for making fluffy upma. So beginners try it and enjoy it without any fear of failure.

Notes:-

1. Dry roasting rava/sooji is necessary part.
2. Adding oil/ghee later will give you smooth fluffy taxture.
3. After adding water it will start spluttering so be careful, cover and cook for one minutes. 
4. After adding oil and peanuts keep on stirring otherwise it will stick to bottom and get burn easily. 
5. You can add any of your favorite veggie in it to make it more healthy.
6. You can add roasted gram dal instead of peanuts or skip both of them.
7. You can add green chilly or red chilly pdr to spice it up. I skipped both as it was for my recovering dad and kids.

Hope you will like it
