Vegetable Rava Upma உப்புமா

Roast the cup of rava in a pan until it gets aromatic - this should take about 5 or 7mins. Transfer to another bowl and set aside to cool

In the same pan add the mustard seeds, urad dal and curry leaves to some heated oil. When the mustard seeds start to splutter, add the onions, green chillies and ginger. Saute until the onions go soft

To the pan, add the cup of frozen veggies. Add 3 cups of water, the required amount of salt and cook until the veggies turn soft

Turn the fire to low, and add the roasted rava. Stir quickly to avoid lumps. This is the crucial part of making the upma. Let it continue to cook and stir for another 5mins

Serve hot! Upma goes great with some sambar or chutney
