MIXED VEGETABLE SEMIYA UPMA

INGREDIENTS:

Double roasted semia - 1 cup
Water - 1 1/2 cups
Oil - 2 tablespoons
Salt - as per taste
Mixed vegetables- carrot, shelled peas, beans etc. - 1/2 cup
Onion - 1 (optional)
Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp.
Urad dhal - 1 tsp.
Chenna dhal - 1/2 tsp.
Hing
Dry red chillies - 1 or 2
Coriander leaves - few
Curry leaves - 1 sprig

METHOD:

If you do not have double roasted semia, dry roast semia till golden brown.

Chop all the vegetables to small cubes.

In a kadai, heat oil, add mustard seeds, urad dhal, chenna dhal, hing, curry leaves and chillies and when dhal turns golden brown,(you can add onions at this stage and saute till translucent. But I have not added it.) add the chopped vegetables. Saute for two minutes. Now add the required amount of salt and add water. When water starts boiling, add the semia and mix well. Cover with a lid and cook in simmer for 5 minutes or till water is absorbed. Garnish with coriander leaves.
