Aval Uppma

Aval/Poha / Rice flakes is very commonly used in western India... In south also its used, but not that extensively. I had bought a packet of aval almost 2 months back. So decided to make some dish with this. But what to make ? Then I remembered, my mom use to make uppma with aval. These are very tasty to have for change...

 

 

Ingredients:

 

Aval - 1 Cup

Salt - 1/4 tsp

Asafoedita - 1 pinch

Red Chilli - 2-3 nos.

Curry leaves - 1 sprig

Mustard - 1/2 tsp

Urad Dhal - 1/2 tsp

Oil - 1 tbsp

 

How to make:

 

1. Wash the aval thoroughly underwater, drain and keep aside for 5 mins. This will make the aval soft.

 

2. In a pan heat oil, add mustard, urad dhal. Once mustard crackles, add red chilli, curry leaves, asafoedita and finally the aval.

 

3. Saute for 2 mins. Add the salt and saute for 3-5 mins. Serve it hot...
