Upma, uppumavu or uppittu is a dish originating from the Indian subcontinent, most common in the southern states as breakfast, cooked as a thick porridge using Foxtail Millets
First, add 1.5 tbsp Ghee to The Upliance jar. Then add 0.25 tsp Hing, 0.5 tsp Mustard Seeds, and 10 washed Curry Leaves. Select sauté mode at medium heat for 30 seconds with automatic stirring to temper the spices. While the spices sauté, prepare 1 Onion (cut in two), 1 Green Chilli (stem removed), and 3g Ginger (peeled). Then, add these aromatics to the jar and The Upliance will sauté them at low heat for 3 minutes with automatic stirring.
Next, discard the soaking water from the 100g washed and soaked Pearl Millet and 50g washed and soaked Moong Dal. Add these soaked ingredients along with 1.25 tsp Salt, 0.25 tsp Turmeric, and 400 ml Water to The Upliance jar. The Upliance will then bring the mixture to a simmer at low heat for 10 minutes with automatic stirring, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.
The Upliance will continue to cook the khichdi. It will briefly stir at low speed for 10 seconds, then resume cooking at low heat for an additional 25 minutes with automatic stirring. This ensures the millets and dal are perfectly tender and the khichdi reaches the desired consistency without you needing to monitor it.
Once cooked by The Upliance, the Bajra Khichdi is ready. Garnish with 0.5 tbsp Ghee and 2 stem minced Coriander Leaves. Serve your delicious, perfectly cooked khichdi hot.
