Preparation Process

---

• For this first soak of tamarind at least 15 minutes before we start our recipe. Because here we need to extract its pulp by using water. We can easily extract from soaking.

• Now chop onions and green chillies, similar to the image below.

• Now heat a pan and dry roast the rice on a medium flame for up to 5 to 7 minutes.
  After that, transfer it to a plate.

Now take one bowl or pan that has a thin bottom. Heat it by adding the required oil.

The taste of this dish depends on the quantity of oil we use. So, for this dish, prepare it with 6 to 7 spoons of oil.

• After getting heated, add mustard seeds, Channa dal, Urad dal, and 2 broken red chillies too. Fry all those until they turn a golden colour.

• Now add chopped onions, green chillies and curry leaves. Mix well and fry for up to 6 minutes by adding turmeric powder.

• Now we need to add tamarind pulp water to it. Here I am giving a measurement. You must follow it to get an excellent structure with aromatics.

Here we need to use 3 and a half cups of pulp water for 1 cup of rice. This means 3 1/2 to 1 cup of rice.

Based on my needs here, I am adding pulp water to this bowel.

• Now add the required salt and jaggery to it. I'm using crystal salt here, which I add with my hands based on my needs. Then I measured correctly. It's my way of cooking.

• Now by closing the lid, just leave it until it gets bubbles.

• After getting bubbles now, add our dry fried rice here. Mix well. If there's any need, just add it.

Now keep the flame low and by closing the lid, just cook until all the water has evaporated.

• Now here you see water extracted completely, now mix gently.

• keep for another 5 more minutes.

• Now our tasty and delicious Pulusu Uppindi(Upma) is ready to serve.

In general, we serve it hot, but the taste of this dish is enhanced after a complete cool down only.

If you're getting bored with regular upmas, it's the best choice for you. All of you must try and enjoy it.
