Upma is a delicious Rava-based South Indian breakfast meal. In this classic cuisine, roasted Rava is cooked in water flavoured with ghee (or oil), cashews, urad dal (lentils), onion, and other herbs and spices.
This hot breakfast dish can be turned vegan by replacing the ghee with oil. This upma is filled with warmth, flavour, and sweetness.
