How to make Sooji Upma Recipe With Coconut
To begin making the Sooji Upma With Coconut Recipe, in a skillet, dry roast the semolina on medium heat until it turns slightly golden and releases a roasted aroma. Keep aside.
Heat a teaspoon of ghee in a heavy bottomed pan. Add mustard seeds and allow it to crackle. Stir in the chana dal and urad dal and roast these dals on medium heat until they turn brown and crisp.
Stir in the green chillies, ginger, onion and curry leaves and saute until the onions becomes soft and tender. To this add the green peas, stir in the salt and pour 4 cups of water and allow it to come to a boil.
As the water is boiling gradually add the rava/sooji, continuously stirring the water mixture in one hand so the lumps don't form.
Keep stirring the sooji upma now until all the ingredients are well combined, the mixture will also begin to thicken.
Once the sooji upma thickens, reduce the heat, cover the pan and cook for a couple of minutes. Finally garnish with fresh grated coconut and coriander leaves and serve hot.
