Indira of Mahanandi – a blogger who has inspired so many people to cook, to blog, and continues to do so with her penchant for perfection. Her passion for what she does is evident in every post at her site. Beautiful pics, clean layout, detailed index and awesome recipes – a visual treat indeed.
A search for an Upma recipe took me once again to her site. The recipe looked simply delicious, rather, simple and delicious. My mother had got me some freshly made bajra flour from Rajasthan last week. A quick call to my daughter who was on her way home got me the sprouts from Nilgiris. She was amused at my excitement and sauted the onions while I did the the rotis. Within no time, the Bajra roti Upma was ready. Manas took a quick picture and here it is. Thank you dearest Indira, you rock!
Here is the link to this recipe; I added some julienned carrots and powdered fennel since both were at the kitchen counter while I was cooking

I feel happy to know that you cooked and liked this recipe, dear Pratibha. My grandma would be all smiles.:) And, thanks very much for all the kind words about Mahanandi.
Picture looks really cool Pratibha…I can say Manas got it right..:)..few more tweaks and she would be doing a great job..
Wow! Looks yum and sounds really interesting …. must try soon
Delicious looking Upma!
Regarding your question about Menthi Aaku pachadi, the Tamarind and urad dal will take away the bitterness.
Thanks for visiting!!
Yummy! generally have Bajre ki roti with kadi and mooli patti ki sabzi, traditional Rajasthani style, but the upma has made it differently simple, nutritious and delicious.
