Vermicelli Upma

This is one of the easiest dishes that could be prepared in less time. I've just made it with onion and tomato. If you want to make it healthier you can add vegetables too.


Ingredients:

1. Vermicelli - 2 Cups
2. Onion - 1 Cup (Finely Chopped)
3. Tomato - 1/2 Cup (Finely Chopped)
4. Green Chillies - 4 or adjust to your taste
5. Water - 3.5 Cups
6. Salt -Needed qty
7. Mustard - 1 tsp
8. Channa Dhal/Urid dhal - 1 tsp
9. Oil - 1 tbs




Procedure:

1. Dry roast vermcelli and keep aside.
2. In a pan, add oil. Pop mustard. Then add dhal, fry for a minute.
3. Now, add onion and tomato. Fry till onion turns golden brown.
4. Add salt and water. Allow it to boil well.
5. Now, add the roasted vermicelli.
6. Medium the flame. Close the pan with lid.
7. Inbetween, stir now and then to avoid vermicelli sticking to the pan.
