Lockdown is giving plenty opportunities to improvise cooking. I am looking for new recipes every day to post in my blog. If you are ready for getting new ideas, no doubt it will be on your way. That’s happening in my case. I prefer simple dishes that any one can make. Here is one of it. Delicious and nutritious.
Preparation of rice flour and broken rice at home
Parboiled white rice 1 kg, soak it for 3-4 hours, drain it and allow the moisture to vapour. Powder it in a mixie. Sieve and separate the broken rice. Again grind and continue the process. Finally powder and broken grains are ready. Dry fry the rice flour and store to prepare puttu and ada. The broken rice is used for upma.
Preparation of Upma
Fried broken rice 1 cup, soaked in 2 cups of water, onion 1, ginger 1inch piece, tomato 1, all three finely chopped, coconut oil 1tbsp., curry leaf a sprig, salt to taste, mustard seeds 1/4 tsp., dried red chilli 2, cut into thin circles.
Heat the oil in a shallow pan, drop in mustard seeds, allow to splutter, add curry leaves followed by onion and ginger, add salt combine well till tender. Add red chilli, mix and add tomato. Sauté till it is cooked. Drop in the soaked broken rice. Mix well and allow to cook. It will take 3-5 minutes to get cooked. Transfer into a serving bowl. Serve hot with papadum.
Those who prefer a side dish can go for a chicken or egg roast or a vegetable stew.
