Semiya Pulihora


What I used:

Semiya (Vermicelli) : 2 cups
Ghee or Oil : 2 to 3 tbsp
Green Chillies : 7 to 9
Curry Leaves : a few
Chana Dal : 2 tbsp
Urad Dal : 1 tsp
Mustard Seeds : 1 tsp
Jeera : 1 tsp
Peanuts : 2 tbsps
Cashew : 2 tbsps
turmeric powder : 1/4 tsp
Salt : as required
Juice of 1 lemon or as desired
water : 4 cups

How I did:
  • Boil water in a vessel along with one tbsp of oil or ghee and turmeric powder.
  • Add semiya to the boiling water and take off the stove when it starts boiling again.
  • Strain the semiya in a strainer and immediately run some cool water over it to avoid stickiness.
  • In a saucepan, heat 1 tbsp ghee and fry mustard seeds, jeera, urad dal, channa dal, red chillies, cashews, peanuts, green chillies and curry leaves. 
  • Add semiya and saute for few minutes. Add salt as required. 
  • Switch off the stove and add lemon juice.  Serve hot
