How to Make Suji Upma - Indian Cooking Video

[1pawan2]

speculation....

[MrsBhawnakhanna1]

I have a question to ask that is I saw upma recepie . U used urad dal also. Is it necessary to use urad dal in making upma? Can we make upma without using urad dal , adding only chana dal ?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@MrsBhawnakhanna1 : Yes, you can.

[dmglover26]

you don't understand how much i love this recipe! my mom thinks im crazy because i ask her to make this at least 3 times a week and she makes enough for 2 days just for me! yes i am that obsessed hehe! i actually learned how to make it myself now too! :) thank youuuuu.

[JesusOrMuhammad]

you indians have such interesting recipes.. im starting to fall in love with indian food after watching these videos even though i don't know how this food tastes :) but it sure looks tasty to me

[jaytee184]

Your presentation is fantastic and having forgotten curry leaves happens just due to the excitement of explaining it to us. However, could you please enlighten us as to which sequence of the cooking should it be added so that the optimal flavor of that wonderful leaves can be absorbed to the fullest extend? Thanks!

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@jaytee184 : The Curry leaves go into the oil, right before or after the Dry Red Chilli and flavor the oil which in turn flavors the whole dish.

the upma i set out to make has now turned into a completely new possibility; but being a smoker i do not mind some extra carbon in my food.

[Kriti999]

Nice video, but I think you decided to add everything that you found in your fridge:)

[vickybgp]

u both r awesome, talented and gorgious girls............urs receipes r always nice...............by d way i want 2 know that from where u got these beautiful spatulas used in cooking..........plz reply soon?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@vickybgp

Thanks! The spatula does not have a brand on it and unfortunately, we cannot find it anymore.

[sonaprachi]

thanx!! I had tried so many recipies of upma , but never came out this good. This is just the way i like it. Thanx for sharing :)

[sami166413]

u forgot the curry leaves...

[lalliballi999]

your upma is worst

[billofsydney]

Good show. The 2 pretty girls are requested to speak a bit slow. It is hard to understand otherwise. I think one could add some cabbage to upma and this is optional.

[grapeview61]

I have made this dish three times in the last week. I have now added kali mirch and methi seeds to the last two batches. This food combination really gives a you a charged energetic feeling. Are there other recipes that provide similar metabolic rushes?

[pajsingh]

I got all the ingredients together and made it as you showed in video. but you forgot toput the Curry Leaves in your dish.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Yes, you are right. A lot of viewers caught us on that on. We forgot it, even though it was right in front of us ;)

[pajsingh]

@ShowMeTheCurry : I finally saved the day by Quickly getting another frying Pan and putting some Oil and Mustard seeds and the Curry Leaves and then adding later. Love your Dish and Initiative

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Yaay! I guess, all's well that ends well :)

[Sachmomaru]

You have done such a great thing by providing these tools for Indian cooking.  Thank you.!!!

Is semolina like suji? I thought it was more pasty.

Also, where do you find curry patta in America

Thanks again, Steve

would like to see how to make paneer. so expensive here and seldom available

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Semolina is Suji! Indian Stores carry 2 varieties of semolina - the corse and the fine. The Semilina in regular grocery stores is the fine type and does not work for this particular dish and like you said 'gets pasty'.

Curry Patta is also available at Indian/South Asian Grocery stores...you can also buy the plant ;)

For the Paneer - check out our website or our youtube channel, we have a video on how to make it at home.

Hope that helps!

[XXSUKHPREETXX]

yes always, but i was joking.............

[XXSUKHPREETXX]

so u need 2 person to cook upma

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Absolutely not...but it's always fun to have a friend around, right?

[gossiplives]

Cooked this today and it was great !

[vaasung]

I hate Upma

[extremefstop]

indian food is very under rated

[VegetarianDatabase]

??

essentially one is eating raw dal (unboiled) with this!? how is that possible..

[ShowMeTheCurry]

The daal actually cooks in the oil so it is not raw.

[amitkumaragr]

hey u forgot to put curry leaves...:) but it really looks good..

[jamalespy]

I must congratulate you on the technical quality of your videos good titling very good editing nice photography. Hope to see a DVD with all your recipes soon well done.

[ValentinaChef]

I love indian food!!! it's very intersting also their culture!

[U2CanBeme]

where can you get that big paki pan from?

[HitmanV3]

its best when its a lil watery rather than all the water being evaporated.

[gaurisachin]

if you add some sugar its tasty.You forgot to add curry leaves.

[babweenaz]

thankyou for the recipe

[purespirit9]

Have not taste Indian food in my life but would love to try some of the recipes you have here on YT. Although there are some ingredients I am not familiar with. Guess I would have to find an Indian market to find out huh..duh! 5/5

Question : What is the purpose of Roasting Suji ?

[joshibiz]

You call this a quick fix with all those ingredients?

[Shokara2]

@joshibiz compaired to alot of Indian cooking it DEFIANTLY is. LOL My husband is from Chennai and Im doing my best to learn to cook the way he likes. As an Irish American .. I can tell you... Indian food is FAR more complex than anything in America but all that preperation and stages makes a HUGE diffrence in flavor. I will never look at american food the same way again. Blah.

[TarotLadyLissa]

I haven't eaten much indian food, but I must say that it ALL looks delicious! I can't wait to find an indian grocery! Before I met mu husband I dated an indian man, but he didn't eat much indian food around me! He did buy me some henna powder though! :) I love henna!
