upma. uppumavu. uppittu in a light blue plate on a white background, upma is a dish of thick porridge from dry-roasted semolina or coarse rice flour. Upma is typically made by first lightly dry roasting semolina called rava or sooji in India. The semolina is then taken off the fire and kept aside while spices, lentils, onion, ginger, etc are sautéed in oil or ghee. The semolina is then added back to the pan and mixed thoroughly. Rava is the South Indian word for 'semolina' so it is also known as Rava Upma. Traditionally it is made with coarse ground rice or wheat but these days we also make it with many other ingredients like oats, vermicelli, poha, bread, quinoa etc.
