Rava upmas are prepared in different styles - cooked with a few vegetables, or cooked with tomatoes or cooked with dals or cooked with a few onions and green chillies. It's a delight for me to cook this classic rava upma with onions and green chillies. Preparing rava upma is such an easy way to cook tiffin for your breakfast or dinner within 10 minutes. All you really need for this upma is finely chopped onions, green chillies and ginger.
Rava upma and Semiya upma are one of my favourite breakfast dishes. You can easily prepare this upma within 10 minutes with a handful of chopped onions and few ginger and green chillies. As you all familiar with this Rava Upma we will see some important tips for a tasty upma.
When roasting the rava, try to roast it well on medium heat until you can smell a nutty flavour. Roasting the rava makes a more flavourful upma. You can also add a tsp of ghee for roasting the rava. For many rava upma dishes it requires two parts of water for one part of rava. The stovetop cooking will produce perfect results. For Bansi rava, you can use a pressure cooker.
The main flavours for upma come from green chillies, ginger and curry leaves. The coconut oil will add a nice flavour to the upma and also helps for a non sticky upma.
