    Ragi Vermicelli Upma

    Vermicelli upma is a easy go to breakfast idea in many home. It is quick to make and taste delicious as well. Why not try this ragi semiya upma instead of regular ones. These are delicious and is so healthy. The main thing is, you have to be little careful when cooking it, if you add too much water, then the whole upma will become one big gloop.. But the method i am showing is fool proof and you can never mess with it.

    Ragi Vermicelli Upma Recipe step by step picture 

     
    Take all your ingredients
    I used this ragi vermicelli. I like this brand too, it turns out good each time.
    See how fine the semiya is, you have to be careful when cooking it, if you
    mess with it then the whole upma may turn gooey..
    I chopped up lots of veggies
    First add in mustard, urad dal, curry leaves in hot oil
    add a pinch of asafoetida
    add in curry leaves
    onions

     

    toss it well
    add in all the veggies, i added the green chillies as well
    season with salt
    toss well
    cook them on medium heat till the raw smell leaves from it
    add in the ragi semiya
    toss well in the oil, toast this for few mins
    now sprinkle water little by little
    keep cooking on a low heat
    sprinkle some more water
    keep tossing..you can see the ragi is cooking
    sprinkle some more water
    you can cover and cook them on a low heat
    i tasted it, it was soft and it is cooked
    sprinkle with coriander leaves
    toss well
    Serve
