Corn meal upma (gluten free)


Cornmeal Upma

About:

Upma is traditional south indian breakfast dish made from semolina (Rava)….It granular texture melts in mouth when this diesh is served hot.

Looking at the texture of cornmeal thought why not try upma; Outcome was surprising and could say tastewise it was same as Semolina but corn meal has healthy carbs, fiber and other nutrients.

Corn meal is gluten free making it a good whole grain choice for people with wheat allergies. It can be substituted for wheat in some baking items.

So try this variant upma as part of your breakfast or as an evening snack.
