Vermicilli Upma

Filed in Snacks 5 comments

After waking so late today being a weekend, i was just gazing outside thru my bedroom window to see gloomy and grey sky which is quite a sight to start a day.
My poor Rocky was in the kitchen with his porridge satchet trying to have the same old breakfast everyday!! So i ran into the kitchen asked him to give me 1/2 hr so that i can make some indian breakfast which they both like to have it on weekend when i have time!!Now looked in my pantry to see what i can cook, there were things lying for so long and i can see each and evry tin, pkt screaming at me Pick me Pick me!! but after a careful search, found vermicilli

so I quickly started preparing this dish which took less then 15min and i can see 2 hungry people taking a break from playing Playstation “Army Men” busy tucking in.
It seems my hubby promised to make it up to him this weekend by playing a game on his playstation.So there you go:
My recipe:vermicilli: 1/2 pkt
onion:1
chillies: 3
curry leaves: 2 sprigs
chana dal, urid dal, mustard seeds: 1 tsp each.
cashewnuts: 8


Now take 2 tsp of oil, add tadka and when mustard seeds start spluttering add curryleaves, onion and chillies.Fry for couple of min and then add 2 glasses of water and salt.When the water start boiling add vermicilli to it and simmer it for 5 to 10 min until its cooked.Serve hot!!


Its such an easy and simple recipe that doesn’t take anytime and yet it tastes so good

I guess its the cashewnuts in the recipe which give it that extra oomph!! Love vermicilli.
