I know a lot of you won't believe when I say that my father's favourite dish is Dalia. He is so fond of this humble yes highly nutritious meal that he eats it every day for breakfast. What's interesting is that he experiments a lot with his Dalia. Some day he will add flax seeds, other day mixed dals or a plain daila with curd on some days. So today on father's day I prepared his favourite Dalia using lots of veggies and some crunch from the peanuts. He was delighted and gave a thumbs up 👍 to the recipe and even asked for it. I am hoping that next time he will make it for us🥰 Happy Father's Day papa.

Steps

1

First of dry roast the Dalia on low heat for 4-5 minutes. Stirring occasionally. I normally wash the Dalia after roasting. You can skip doing that if you are okay with it.
2

Heat ghee in a pressure cooker. Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Once the Seeds splutter add the dal, curry leaves and ginger. Keep the heat minimum.
3

After a minute add the chopped onions and green chillies. Saute till Onions turn golden.
4

Now add the vegetables and mix. Add the salt, turmeric and Red chilli powder if using mix well.
5

Add the roasted and washed Dalia and mix well. Add one and half cups of water and cook for 2-3 whistles.
6

Open the cooker only when pressure drops by itself. Fluff up the Dalia using a fork.
7

Now add the peanuts and green coriander. Mix using a fork lightly. Serve hot, yummy Dalia upma.
