Method
Heat 2 tsp of oil in a non-stick pan, scramble the eggs and keep aside. Add ghee and 1 tbsp of oil to the pan and splutter mustard seeds. Add onions, ginger, green chillies and curry leaves. When the onions turn pink, add carrots and beans. Fry for 2 minutes and add water and salt. When the water starts to boil, lower the flame and add the semiya. See that no lumps are formed. Cook covered on a low flame till all the water is absorbed and the semiya is cooked. Stir in between. Finallly, add the scrambled eggs and grated coconut. Serve delicious ‘Semiya Upma / Vermicelli Upma’ for breakfast or as a snack. Enjoy with your kids!
If you are using unroasted semiya, roast it in 1 tsp of ghee till light brown in color, before making the upma.
