Sabudana Upma(Javvarasi upma)

Ingredients
Sabudana-1 cup
Peanuts-1cup(Use only roasted peanuts and grind it to a coarse powder)
Green chilly-2 finely chopped
Potato-1 finely chopped
Corainder
Salt
Sugar -a pinch
Lime juice-2 TBS
Jeera- 2 TSP

Procedure
Wash the Sabudana 4-5 times. If you notice sabudana contains lot of starch and we have to remove that by washing.Now completely drain the water and then add water just enough to cover the sabudana.Leave it for an hour.

After an hour you can see that water is absorbed and also the sabudana is softer than before. Give a stir and sprinkle water and leave it for an hour or so. It should be soft after 2-2 1/2 hours.If it's not soft again sprinkle water, stir it and keep aside.The key here is to soften the sabudana.

In a Kadai add oil, season it with Jeera, Green chillies and cook the potato.

Simmer it until the potato is cooked and add the softened sabudana, Peanut powder, Salt.

Stir it and add lemon and a pinch of sugar before removing from the fire.garnich with coriander.

Sabudana is extracted from soakedTapioca. In South we generally use this to make Payasam and Vadam.In North India this is a vrat dish.
