The dish is also known as uppumavu or uppittu and is typically consumed as a breakfast meal in several states of India, including Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Maharashtra and Gujarat. The dish can be best described as a savoury porridge, made from roasted semolina flour that is cooked in water until a thick paste-like consistency is achieved. Upma recipes can have a whole range of your favourite vegetables including carrots, peas, cauliflower etc. Upma also contains roasted peanuts or cashews to add a bit of crunch and taste and almost always contains a tempering of curry leaves, mustard seeds and urad, and chana dals.
