Millet Upma comfort food
Indian food is my comfort food. When I feel a cold coming on, nothing is better than a warm bowl of mulligatawny. In the depth of allergy season, when my sinuses are so clogged I can barely breathe, a strong vindaloo usually helps clear them out. All of my major life accomplishments have been celebrated with gulab jamen.
Although most of my favorite Indian dishes are for lunch or dinner, I recently discovered upma and it’s changed my mornings. Usually a porridge made of semolina, I tweaked it to use millet instead. I prefer it a little drier than a porridge, but you can add a bit more water if you’d prefer it looser.
I have always been a fan of a savory breakfast, and particularly I love the warming spices and jolt of flavor in the morning. And since millet is a whole grain, it will keep you feeling full, unlike a sugar-laden muffin or white-flour bagel. This millet upma recipe is perfect for people with a phlegm damp body type.
