Prep 11 min Cook 12 min Serves 3 Easy

Ingredients

  • Saltto taste
  • Onion1, finely chopped
  • Ginger1 tbsp, minced
  • Green Chili2
  • Ghee3 tbsp
  • Turmeric Powder1/4 tsp
  • Vegetable Oil2 tbsp
  • Mustard Seeds1 tsp
  • Curry Leaves2 sprigs
  • Lemon1/2
  • Rice Flour1 cup

Optional extras

  • Fresh Cilantro2 tbsp, chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    Dry-roast the rice flour (if using rava or vermicelli) till nutty and just golden; set aside. Flattened rice needs only a rinse and drain.

  2. 2

    Pop the mustard seeds in hot oil, add lentils if using, and wait for them to blush gold.

  3. 3

    Sweat the onions down, stir in ginger, and let the rawness cook off.

  4. 4

    Stir in the green chili, then the rice flour; mix with a light hand so nothing turns to mush.

  5. 5

    Rest covered off the heat for five minutes, fluff, and top with the curry leaves and a hard squeeze of lemon.

Chef's tip

Roasting the rava until just golden is the difference between upma and paste.
