Colorful Upma Kozhukattai

ADVERTISEMENTS

Upma Kozhukattai tastes somewhat similar to Rice Rava Upma. This is partially cooked with less oil and then steamed.

I have added some carrot, curry leaves and coriander leaves to make it colorful and healthy.

Ingredients

• Rice rava – 1 cup (here is How to Prepare Rice Rava ?)
• Grated carrot – 3 table spoon
• Chopped coconut – 2 table spoon
• Curry and coriander leaves – few
• Salt – as per taste
• Water – 2 cup
• For seasoning
  • Mustard – ½ tea spoon
  • Urad dal – 1 tea spoon
  • Bengal gram – 1 tea spoon
  • Red chilli – 2 no
  • Asafetida powder – pinch
  • Oil – 1 table spoon

Method

• Heat a pan with oil and do the seasoning; add curry leaves, coriander leaves and fry for few seconds.

• Add chopped carrot, chopped coconut and fry for few seconds; add salt, water and bring to boil.

• Add rice rava gradually, stir continuously and keep cooking till it gets thick; remove and cool it; the dough is ready.

• Make small balls (little bigger than the size of a lemon) from this dough; steam cook it for 6 to 8 minutes.

• Serve hot with any chutney (here Coconut Chutney is shown).

Tips

• Quantity of water may have to be little reduced, if rice rava is prepared with newly harvested rice.
