curd upma recipe | curd rava upma | breakfast recipe | thayir upma | with step by step images.



curd upma is one of the most famous South Indian dish even today. Learn how to make curd rava upma.

Thayir upma, in fact, used to be one of the traditional secrets of cooking upma in Tamil Nadu, and many grandmas used to add a cup of buttermilk or a little curds to the upma, claiming that it would taste better and also digest more easily.

To make curd upma, combine the curds, green chilli paste, salt and 2½ cups of water in a deep bowl, whisk well and keep aside. Heat the oil in a deep non-stick pan, add the mustard seeds and sauté on a medium flame for 30 seconds. Add the urad dal and curry leaves and sauté on a medium flame for 30 seconds. Add the onions and sauté on a medium flame for 1 minute. Add the rava and sauté on a medium flame for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the curd-water mixture and coriander, mix well, cover with a lid and cook on a medium flame for 3 minutes, while stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.

Upma made with semolina is one of the most famous breakfast dishes in India. We have another traditional recipe, curd rava upma, made slightly different by cooking the roasted rava in a mixture of curds and water instead of just water. This gives a nice consistency and pleasant, rustic tang to the upma.

Tips for curd upma. 1. Saute the rava on a medium flame only. Sauteing on high flame might lead to quick browning and burning. 2. After adding the curd-water mixture, remember to stir it continuously to avoid lump formation.

Serve the curd rava upma hot and fresh with chutney and pickle or traditional Gun powder!
