1
Rinse 200 grams of quinoa thoroughly under running water and soak it for 15-20 minutes. Drain the water and set aside.
2
In a pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil. Add 1 teaspoon of mustard seeds and let them splutter.
3
Add 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds, 1 teaspoon of urad dal, and 1 teaspoon of chana dal. Fry them until they turn golden brown.
4
Add 1 finely chopped onion, 1-2 chopped green chilies, and a few curry leaves. Sauté until the onions turn translucent.
5
Add 1 chopped carrot, 1 chopped capsicum, and 1/2 cup of green peas. Cook the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are slightly tender.
6
Add the soaked and drained quinoa to the pan. Mix well with the vegetables.
7
Pour 2 cups of water into the pan and add salt to taste. Stir well and bring the mixture to a boil.
8
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let the quinoa cook for 15-20 minutes or until it becomes soft and fluffy.
9
Turn off the heat and let the quinoa upma rest for 5 minutes. Fluff it with a fork and garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
