  • Hi maria,
    Love to read your new recipes and even more love to try those. Keep moving.You are truely an inspiration to cook

    When ever i make upma it gets sticky.Is there any measurement for the water we add.I noticed in your recipe for 1 cup you add 2 cups of water. Or is it because i didnt fry the semolina before cooking?

    • Hi Neeta,

      Thanks a lot :) Unless you are using roasted rava, it’s better to fry semolina before cooking. Also the amount of water depends on the texture you want. If you want upma to have a separate grainy texture like in the picture given, use 1 cup water for 1 cup semolina. If you want a soft upma, like pongal, use double the qty of water, for 1 cup semolina, use 2 cups water. Also if you add more oil / ghee, upma will be soft.

      Hope this helps..

      Cheers
      Maria
