One plate of upma is a wholesome and hearty South Indian breakfast dish made from semolina (rava) cooked with a medley of vegetables, fragrant spices, curry leaves, and tempered mustard seeds. Often garnished with fresh coriander and a squeeze of lime, this savory dish is loved for its light yet filling nature. Upma is a good source of energy, offering carbohydrates from the semolina and fiber from the added vegetables like carrots, peas, and beans. It is low in fat when prepared with minimal oil and can be made even healthier by incorporating whole-grain semolina or alternative grains like quinoa. Laden with essential nutrients, it supports digestion and sustains energy levels. However, those monitoring sodium intake or calorie counts should be mindful of oil and salt proportions. Versatile and customizable, upma is not only nourishing but also a comforting choice for any time of day.
