Vegetable Oil2 tbsp
Mustard Seeds1 tsp
Curry Leaves2 sprigs

Instructions

1
Dry-roast the puffed rice (murmura) (if using rava or vermicelli) till nutty and just golden; set aside. Flattened rice needs only a rinse and drain.
2
Splutter mustard seeds, tip in the curry leaves and chilies, and let the oil get fragrant.
3
Fry the onions till soft and translucent, add ginger and turmeric; two minutes more.
4
Add the onion, saute a minute, then fold in the prepared puffed rice (murmura) with salt and a splash of water.
5
Steam briefly covered, then cut through the mixture and fluff; squeeze lemon over and shower with cilantro and coconut.

Chef's tip

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