MoongDal Upma, Pachai Payaru Upma ( Hesaru Upma)

      Moong Dal Upma is a very tasty & healthy recipe. Moong dal is rich in Iron and protein. I love this recipe. I usually soak it overnight and grind it morning. And prepare this Upma for dinner. This flour doesn't need to be fermented but just make the flour batter 4-6 hrs prior making the idly's.

Ingredients :

Moong Dal - 1 cup                                                           Soaking Time : 2 Hrs

Smash the Idly's into crumbs or crushed pieces. Just crush when it is hot otherwise it may become hard.
