Vegetable couscous upma recipe, Couscous upma

Couscous is a granular semolina that resemble tiny beads is a staple food of Northern Africa. It is usually accompanied with any curry or gravy spooned on the top or flavored with spices, veggies and also meat. Couscous is more easy and quick to prepare than any pasta as it takes just 5 minutes to cook. Sounds interesting right?

I usually pick instant couscous from the store and pair it with chicken curry or make different preparations as it tastes bland on its own. It picks up its flavor with whatever you accompany as side dish or cook it with. After a visit to my sister’s house I found out that many varieties can be made with couscous by replacing rava/ sooji, rice and dalia in its traditional recipes.

One such try is this vegetable couscous upma which can be made easily in no time and is double healthy as it is made of whole wheat and veggies. This upma can be paired with just pickle and voila tummy filling breakfast is done!

We make idli, dosa, paratha, poori, oats and even bread for breakfast, which I am sure everyone might be bored of, so try this recipe and let me know your feedback. For this recipe I have used whole wheat couscous from trader joe’s. So let’s get to that!
