  • Into the mixer add coriander leaves, green chillies, ginger and grind into a smooth paste. Add a little water to grind to a smooth paste. Set aside. In a pan heat 3 cups of water in a saucepan along with salt and sugar. Bring it to a boil and stir until the sugar dissolves. Turn the heat to low and keep the water simmering. Heat oil in a heavy bottomed pan. Add the mustard seeds, urad dal and allow it to roast until the urad dal is browned. Add in the curry leaves, onions, green chillies and cook till the onions become soft and translucent. Once the onions have softened, add the sooji and roast for 3 to 4 minutes until you get a lightly roasted aroma. Stir the paste. Gradually add the hot water and keep stirring the upma until all the water is absorbed. Stir in the lemon juice, cover and cook for a few minutes and turn off the heat. Serve hot.
