Upma would be the last thing anybody would choose to prepare as breakfast and now using Broken wheat, no way. It sounds crazy thou, but it tastes well.
Broken wheat is a replacement for rice for a lot of Diabetics.They are good to eat, less in calories and is completely bland (no taste) and the best, keeps your bowel clean... They are easily available, but they have small stones in them, if they are not cleaned properly. Beware. I would suggest you'll to buy it from Namdaris.
Broken wheat Upma.. preparation time 15mins, cooking time 15mins.
Required ingredients:
1 medium glass of broken wheat. soak it in warm water for 30mins, before cooking them. this helps the wheat to cook faster.
1 Medium Onions -- you can either slice or dice them.. any shape of your choice.
1 medium capsicum -- slice or dice them
1 medium carrot, grated.
1 or 2 medium chillies chopped (as much spicy you require)
pinch of hing & turmuric
1 tspn mustard
1 tspn jeera
1 tspn chilli powder
5-6 curry leaves (karabeevu)
corriander to garnish
oil & salt
Procedure:
cook the broken wheat in low flame and ensure that you cook with the same water that you have soaked it with. they turn lighter, then the original colour, which means its cooked and they can easily be a paste among 2 fingers. keep it aside after its cooked.
take another kadai, add oil, warm up the oil then add mustard, allow them to splutter and then add jeera.
add onion and saute them for 2-3mins, then add capsicum, saute both for 3mins. add grated carrot and mix them well with other vegetables. dont cook them till they are very soft. allow them to be crunchy.

add curry leaves and again saute the entire mixture
now add the cooked wheat and mix it with the above stuff.

they taste well with curd too.
