Upma

Upma is India's hot-favourite breakfast food. Just like idlis, it is also originally from South India, and comes with a list of benefits. Rava, which is used to make upma, is rich in protein, vitamin B and iron. Adding veggies to the upma not only makes it tastier but also healthier. Upma should be your go-to breakfast meal if you wish to lose weight quickly. A bowl of upma has fiber, vitamins, and healthy fats. It is low in cholesterol and calories which makes it a healthy meal and helps you have a balanced diet. Upma is prepared using semolina and it is full of iron. Suji or rava contains no cholesterol, but it is calorie-dense. A 100 gm unenriched semolina contains 360 calories (as per data by United States Department of Agriculture). However, people who wish to lose weight may use this to their advantage by consuming suji in their breakfast meals. Upma made from coarser rava known as sajjige is a dish of Udupi cuisine. It is sometimes served along with snacks such as sautéed and spiced poha or chevdo.
