A Healthy Breakfast Recipe - Broken Wheat Upma

Broken Wheat Upma, as the name suggests is a nutrient-rich wheat based
upma. While the broken wheat brings in loads of dietary fibre and
energy, carrot and green peas bring along a wealth of nutrients,
especially vitamin A. The veggies also add crunch to an otherwise soft
upma. You may also add other veggies of your choice to make it more
colourful and tasty.

• Clean and wash the Periyar broken wheat thoroughly. Par-boil the broken wheat in 2 cups of hot water for 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and keep aside.
• Heat the oil in a pressure cooker, and add the mustard seeds.
• When the seeds crackle, add the green chillies and sauté on a medium flame for a few seconds.
• Add the onions and ginger, mix well and sauté on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the green peas and carrots, mix well and sauté on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the broken wheat, salt and 1¼ cups of water, mix well and pressure cook for 2 whistles.
• Allow the steam to escape before opening the lid.
• Garnish with coriander and keep aside to cool slightly.
