Mangalore-Style Upma

Mangalore-style Upma is soft, golden, and gently spiced, making it the perfect dish for slow, soulful mornings. Each spoonful is comforting and light, with the delicate crunch of urad dal, the warmth of mustard and curry leaves, and the earthiness of roasted semolina coming together in harmony. The finishing touch of freshly grated coconut adds a hint of sweetness that balances the savoury notes beautifully.

It’s a traditional breakfast that brings back memories of family kitchens and quiet mornings. Serve it warm, topped with a drizzle of ghee and a generous sprinkle of coconut. Whether you’re starting your day or need a mid-morning pick-me-up, this Mangalore-style Upma is always a good idea.
