Shevaya / Vermicelli Upma

Today morning my mum said, 'Make Upma today'. Here you go, I have decided to cook Shevaya Upma for brunch. Although my mum believes in breakfast and lunch as two different concepts. I believe some Maharashtrian breakfast recipes are wholesome, simple and serve ideal for brunch.

Preparation:
1. Chop onion (1 nos ) , tomato (2 nos), green chillies (3 nos) , ginger (1/4 inch), garlic (2nos) and coriander.

2. Keep a large pan on medium heat, now add oil (2 tbspn) . When the oil is warm, add curry leaves ( 4-5 nos), mustard seeds (1/2 tspn), cumin seeds (1/2 tspn), green chillies, garlic , ginger . Sauté for few mins

3. Add white lentil (urad dal -1 tbspn) . Then add veggies like carrots, green peas, french beans and corn. Add spicy roasted peanuts, turmeric (1/2 tspn). 

4. Then add 3 cups shevaya or vermicelli to the above mixture, roast them well.  Add salt to taste , lemon juice (4 tbspn) . Add hot water (3 cups). 

5. Cover the pan with a lid , lower the heat and cook for 5 mins.

6. Serve hot, garnish with coriander and freshly grated coconut.
