Ingredients:

• 1 cup roasted rava (semolina)
• 1 cup + ¼ cup water
• ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 green chili
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon pepper powder
• 10 to 15 curry leaves
• 1 tablespoon ghee
• 2 red chilies
• 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
• 2 beans
• 1 carrot
• 1 cabbage leaf
• ½ cup cooked boneless chicken, diced
• 4 cloves
• 1 piece of cinnamon (2 inches long)
• 3 cardamom pods (seeds only)

Instructions:

In a deep pan or cooking pot over low heat, add ghee. Once the ghee is hot, add mustard seeds. When they splutter, add red chili, green chili, and curry leaves. Sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring continuously.

Add the vegetables (beans, carrot, and cabbage leaf) and salt. Stir for one minute until the vegetables are coated with the oil. Pour ¼ cup of water and sprinkle turmeric powder and pepper powder. Stir well to combine the spices with the vegetables. Cover the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables become soft. The cooking time may vary based on the vegetable quality.

Now, add the diced chicken to the pan and sauté for a few minutes, allowing it to absorb the flavors. Pour 1 cup of water into the pan and bring it to a boil.

Stir in the roasted rava and mix well with the vegetables and chicken. Cover the pan and let it cook on low heat. Stir occasionally to prevent burning. It should be ready in 2 to 3 minutes.

Once the rava is cooked, cover the pan with a lid and remove it from the heat. Let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Serve the Chicken Upma hot and enjoy a delicious and healthy breakfast with your loved ones. This recipe serves two to three people and is a great nut-free option to savor.
