About Upma
Upma is a popular dish originating from South Indian cuisine, often enjoyed as a nourishing breakfast or snack. It is traditionally made with semolina (rava), which is toasted and cooked with water, vegetables, and aromatic spices such as mustard seeds, curry leaves, and green chilies. Other variations may include nuts like cashews or a touch of ghee for added flavor. Upma is a source of complex carbohydrates that provide sustained energy, while the addition of vegetables enhances its nutrient profile with vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Low in saturated fats, it can be a healthy option when prepared with minimal oil. However, certain recipes may include heavily roasted or refined ingredients, which could diminish its nutritional value. With low-calorie and customizable options, Upma is a delightful and wholesome dish suited to balanced diets.
