ARISI UPMA

ARISI UPMA

Arisi upma (I really inspired this dish when i first tasted in my kritika place, as I never heard about this type of upma before and now stared to cook by myself )

Here is the receipe.

Ingredients:-

Rice - 1 cup
Toor Dhall - 3 tsp
Pepper - 1 tsp
Regular Oil - 2 tsp (sunflower oil or canola or olive oil)
Coconut oil - 2 tsp
Mustard seeds - 1 tsp
Urid dhall - 1/2 tsp
Channa dhall - 1/2 tsp
Asafoetida powder - a pinch
Salt to taste
Red chillies - 3
Fresh coconut - 2 tbsp
Curry leaves - 10 leaves finely chopped

First wash the rice and dry it. After it is fully dried, take that along with toor dhall and pepper and grind it coarsely. Now a take wide pan, pre heat both the oil, add mustard seeds, when it splutters add urid dhall, channa dhall, red chillies and asafoetida powder to it and fry it to golden brown. Now add 2 1/2 cups of water (i.e., add water in the ratio of 1 rice:2 1/2 water) and salt and bring it to boil. Now add coconut and rice mix (rice+toor dhall+pepper) to the boiling water and mix it thoroughly. Now close the pan with a lid and let it cook in a low flame for 10 mts. Open the lid and stir the upma occasionally. When the rice and dhall is fully cooked, turn off the stove. Coconut chutney will be a good side dish for this receipe.
