Ingredients
in Vegetable Vermicelli
1 Cup Vermicelli
1 Tsp Mustard Seeds
1 Stem Of Curry Leaf
1 Medium Onion
1″ Piece Of Ginger
5-6 Cloves Of Garlic
1/2 Cup Chopped Mixed Vegetables (Carrots, Beans, Peas)
1 Tsp Coriander Powder
1 Tsp Cumin Powder
1 Tsp Amchur Powder (Ground Mango Powder)
1/2 Tsp Turmeric Powder
1/2 Tsp Sambar Masala
1 Pinch Of Asafoetida (Hing)
1 Green Chili
2-3 Tbsp Oil
Salt To Taste
How To Make Vegetable Vermicelli
Step 1: Roast the Vermicelli
Roast the vermicelli in a tablespoon of cooking oil. Make sure that it doesn’t get too brown or it will feel overcooked. Once it is the right colour, set it aside to cool it.
Step 2: Start Preparing the Masala
In the meantime, heat 1-2 tbsps of oil in a kadhai or wok, add mustard seeds until they crackle. Then add cumin seeds, asafoetida, and the curry leaves. Cook it for a few seconds.
Step 3: Add The Veggies
First add the chopped chilli, garlic and ginger to the masala and let it cook for a minute. Then mix the vegetables and onions and cook until they soften up a bit. Just a bit.
Step 4: Time to add the Vermicelli
But before you do, add some salt, turmeric powder, coriander powder and amchur powder to the mix. Then add the roasted vermicelli and mix the contents well together.
Step 5: Cook the Vermicelli Veggies
Pour some water into the mix to the point where it covers the vermicelli. Then cover the Kadhai with a lid and reduce the flame. Let it cook until the water dries up completely. Occasionally stir the ingredients so that the water is spread evenly across them.
Step 6: Sambar Masala and Ghee
You’re nearly there. Add some sambar masala and Nutralite Doodhshakti Pure Ghee to the vermicelli ingredients and stir it together. The Vermicelli should look orange. Once that is done, your vegetable vermicelli upma is ready to serve.
