I've talked before about the Man's good friend Shashi and his simple Indian food...
...Shashi calls this dish Upma...but it has other names as well..
...and it's a savoury dish usually served for breakfast...
From Wikipedia...
Semolina is coarsely ground grain, usually wheat, with particles mostly between 0.25 and 0.75 mm in diameter. The same milling grade is sometimes called farina, or grits if made from maize. It refers to two very different products: semolina for porridge is usually steel-cut soft common wheat whereas "durum semolina" used for pasta or gnocchi is coarsely ground from either durum wheat or other hard wheat, usually the latter because it costs less to grow.
Non-durum semolina porridge or farina has come to be known in the United States by the trade name Cream of Wheat.
...have you ever tried Upma?...
~Have a lovely day!
i agree it looks pretty weird! but the ingredients sound like they should go together nicely. i had a similar dish (cold) at the Hawaiian airport lounge while waiting for our flight, but instead of wheat it was lentils. good, stick-to-your-ribs kind of food.

I've definitely made uglier Indian food than that! Ha!! Not that this is a competition we should enter into or anything.... ;)
ReplyDeleteAt least it has bright green going for it.
