Answer:-
1- Use 3 cups water for 1 cup of sooji- this results is soft consistency like you get in restaurants. I have tried 2 and 2.5 cups, but I think 3 cups works best.
2- Use ghee and oil more freely for this upma recipe. I have used 1.5 tablespoons oil, you may use even more for a softer and tastier upma. I also add a teaspoon ghee in end to enhance the flavors.
3- Add lots of veggies for a delicious upma. I added only peas, You can add peppers, carrots. My mother-in-law also adds cauliflower (cut into very small pieces) and it tastes good.
4- Do not add all the sooji to the water in one go. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time, stirring after each addition. This way the upma will not form any lumps.
5- Serve straight away when warm. It tastes best when fresh.
6- Don’t forget the squeeze of lemon juice- really helps in bringing out the flavors!
The final texture of upma also depends on the type of sooji that you use for the upma. So if you are not happy with the texture even after following all these steps, try going for a different brand of sooji.
Method
1- Roast sooji on medium heat until fragrant, around 5 to 6 minutes, stirring continuously. Sooji shouldn’t turn brown from bottom so be careful. Remove sooji from pan and transfer it to another bowl.
You can do this step of roasting sooji in advance and save time for busy mornings.
2- To the same pan now add 1.5 tablespoons oil on medium heat. Add mustard seeds and let them pop.
3-Then add hing, cashews, chana & urad dal (which I soaked in water for 10 mins), ginger and saute for 1 minute until they start changing color.
4- Add onion, green chili and curry leaves. Cook for 2 minutes until the onions are soft.
5- Then add the green peas and stir (I used frozen peas and soaked them in warm water for 10 mins before adding to the pan). Cook for 2 minutes until the raw smell of peas goes away.
6- Add 3 cups of water.
7- Then add salt to the water.
8- Also add the chopped cilantro.
9- Add lemon juice and mix it well. You may also add sugar if you like little sweet taste in your upma. You may add 1/2 teaspoon sugar. I did not add any.
10- Now let the water come to a boil.
11- Once the water comes to a boil, start adding the roasted sooji little at a time.
12- Mix sooji after each addition in one direction with a wooden spatula.
13- Add all the sooji in similar way, little by little until all of it is absorbed by water.
14- Then cover the pan with lid and set heat to low. Let it remain like that for 2 mins.
15- Remove lid and add 1 teaspoon ghee. This is optional but recommended. Turn off the heat.
16- Mix the ghee and close lid again for few seconds. Remove the lid, fluff upma with a fork.
