Millet upma is a nutritious breakfast and easy to make. Here I made it with Varagu (Kodo millet) with onion n green chilli, you can add vegetables like carrot, beans etc...


Ingredients:


  • Varagu                      : 1/2 cup
  • Onion                       : 1
  • Green chilli              : 1 long or 2 small
  • Ginger chopped       : 1 tsp
  • Mustard seeds          : 1/2 tsp
  • Urad dal                   : 1/4 tsp
  • Red chilli                 : 1 break into 2
  • Curry leaves             : 1 sprig
  • Oil                            :  2 tsp
  • Salt to taste

Method: 

  • Wash the millet, drain and set aside.  
  •  Cut the onion, green chillies and ginger  finely.
  • In a pressure cooker heat oil, add mustard seeds, urad dal, red chilli, When the mustard seeds splutter add curry leaves, chopped onion, ginger and curry leaves. Saute a while and add the varagu to it,  give a quick mix and add one cup water and salt. Close the lid and pressure cook it  in a low flame for 3 whistles. Cool it, open the cooker and transfer to a serving dish, garnish with badam slices... Serve it hot! 
  • You can try the same recipe with Samai rice or Kuthiravali millet etc...
