This is my 700th post since I started my website in August 2014. Today I made a healthy and a nutritious South Indian breakfast of semolina cooked with some green peas. It is a very simple and a quick dish that can be prepared in a jiffy and is very common in most homes.
You can add any veggies to it, to enhance the flavour and make it more wholesome. Relish it with coconut chutney or pickle. I like mine with some idli podi sprinkled over it. So check out the step by step pictorial recipe to prepare it.
- 3/4 cup sooji (semolina)
- 1/2 cup green peas (I used frozen peas)
- 2 tbsp. oil
- 1 tsp. mustard seeds
- 1 whole dry red chili, broken
- 1 tsp. urad dal (split black gram)
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 tsp. ginger, chopped
- 1 sprig curry leaves
- 2-3 tbsp. roasted peanuts
- salt to taste
- 1 tsp. lime juice
- 1 tsp. ghee
Heat oil in a pan and temper with mustard seeds and red chili. After it stops spluttering, add the urad dal and sauté till it changes colour
Add the onion, ginger and curry leaves. Sauté till light brown. Now add the green peas, followed by the sooji and stir fry till it turns slightly brown.
Add 3 cups water, salt and the roasted peanuts. Simmer by stirring continuously on a low flame till it turns thick. Add lime juice and ghee. Give it a stir and serve hot with coconut chutney.
