Upumav

This is one of my favourite weekend breakfast dish since it is tasty, healthy and easy to make. Upumav and payar thoran is an excellent combination. In the Keralite cuisine, its usually had with banana. Instead of broken wheat, semolina (rava) can also be used.

Ingredients :
Broken wheat - 1 cup
Water - 1 cup
Salt - 1/s tsp
Oil
Raisins
Cashewnut
Mustard seeds
Curry leaves
Green chilli - 1
Ginger chopped - 1/2 tsp
Onion - 1/2
Carrot - 1/2

Wash the broken wheat. Add salt and water and cook it. Take out from flame once the water is almost completely soaked in.

Heat oil in a pan. Add raisins. Take them out as it bloats.
Break cashews into small pieces and add into the pan. Take it out when it becomes lightly browned.
Crack mustard seeds in the oil. Slice the onion and slit the chilli.
Add onion, curry leaves, chopped ginger, chilli. Stir well.
Add grated carrot and stir. Add the cooked broken wheat into the pan. Switch off the flame.
Add the raisins and cashews and mix well and serve hot!
