Aval Upma


3 cups of Thick Poha/ Aval
3 green chilies
1 red chili
1/2 onion cut
Little coriander
Little curry leaves
Mustard, urud dhal and Bengal gram for tampering
Little bit of lime juice
Pinch of turmeric
Salt to taste

Soak the poha in water for 2 minutes or just wash the poha in water. Then transfer it to the colander to drain the water away. Just give a little press to the poha, to drain of the excess water in it. Don’t squeeze it, as it will become mushy. Then transfer it to another dry bowl. So that they are separated out. In a pan, pour a little oil and add the tampering stuffs and then add curry leaves, red chilies and green chilies one after another and add onion sauté well then add pinch of turmeric. Now add the poha to it and mix it thoroughly. Add the lime juice, coriander and salt to it at the end. Switch the gas off. Quick and easy poha upma is ready.

Enjoy it with Almond Chutney.
