Masala Semiya Upma

Semiya is a cool ingredient. You can make dessert or upma with it. Here i use to make upma very often, but Raj is not a fan of it. So i tried adding masala into it so that it will be spicy which will increase the flavours of the dish. I must say it was a success. It was way tastier than the regular Upma that we make with Semiya.

Semiya MasalaIngredients (Serves 2)
Semiya - 1 cup
Mixed veg - 1/2 - 3/4 cup ( i used potato, carrots and peas)
Water - 1 1/2cup
Pearl Onion - 4
Tomato - 1 small
Curry Leaves - 4-5
Mustard - 1 tbsp
Turmeric - a pinch
Chilli pdr - 1/4 tsp
Garam Masala - 1/4 tsp
Grated Coconut - 2 tbsp
Oil - 1 tbsp
Salt

Dry roast the semiya till it becomes light brown in color and keep aside
Heat oil in a pan and splutter the mustard seeds.
Add curry leaves and pearl onion and saute well.
Add the turmeric pdr and the vegetables and saute for 2-3 mins. Now add the tomato and chilli pdr, salt along with the garam masala and saute till the raw smell goes.
Now add the water and bring it to boil.
Add the vermicelli and cook in medium heat. Close the pan and let it cook for 4-5 mins.
Now add the coconut and mix well. It will soak if there is any water left

Note: The water content that you add may vary depending the size of the vermicelli.
