The texture of your upma depends on the amount of water you add. 1:1 ratio of water and sooji will give you a upma which is grainy. 2:1 ratio will give you a bit loose upma. 3:1 ratio will give you a upma which is like a paste.

As per your taste, you can vary the level of water:

  • You can even add some chopped vegetables like carrot, beans and cauliflower. 
  • Try to use Non stick pan so that you can use less oil as well it will not get sticky.
