About Vermicelli Tomato Upma Recipe
Delicious vermicelli, aromatics, spices, cashews, and herbs are used to make the semiya upma. Vermicelli upma is another name for this dish, which has distinctive flavours and textures. It is very dissimilar to the well-known upma breakfast dish from South India.
Maida, which is produced by grinding very hard wheat, is used to make vermicelli. It only contains maida, water, and a dash of salt. Popular instant food item is vermicelli.
This south indian breakfast thali has Vermicelli Tomato Masala Upma, Tomato Chutney, Idli podi ( I will post soon) Curd Mango pickle
You can also make some other south indian breakfast thali like.
Amma makes semiya upma with plain whole spices and onions..I made it little more different by adding tomatoes and some spice powders to it. This upma is a little bit on the spicier side, so you can have it with thick curd and pickle..I hope you will love it and let me know what you think.
Ingredients for Vermicelli Tomato Bath
Vermicelli / Semiya :
Semiya or vermicelli is a good source of carbohydrates and energy that has a relatively low cholesterol content. But because they are typically made from maida, these are not the best option for people with heart disease, diabetes, or excess weight since they are low in fibre.
Onion:
Onions are considered a basic ingredient or the foundation of Indian cooking and are used to make any gravy, curry, or bhuna dish. The flavour and aroma of onion transforms any ordinary dish into a mouthwatering and delectable one.
Mustard Seeds :
They are used as a seasoning rather than a base flavour in many Indian dishes, and they really perk up a lentil or rice dish when fried in a little oil with curry leaves . As a result, mustard seeds are excellent for adding flavour without adding fat to your diet.

Hi Aarthy,
Tonight my husband was asking for a spicy recipe, but my plan was to prepare upma as i was tired. Finally this recipe satisfied both of our wishes. We live abroad in USA and i am new to cooking. You really don't know how much your blog helps me. moreover my husband ;)... I get broccoli here in abundance and being vegetarian we prefer that. So please help me with a broccoli curry for chappati.
