Dear Shilpa,

We have another version of Charmurya upkari

Here we grind coconut,1tsp of cumin, 2tsp of coriander seeds, tamrind, salt and jaggery to a coarse masala adding very little water. The charmbura is roasted slightly and the masala is mixed with it alongwith finely chopped raw onion. Coconut oil is added from top and mixed well. Coriander leaves are used for garnishing.

This variety tastes very good.

A, thanks for your version of chirmure upkari. I will try it next time. Aruna’s version was just awesome, I simply loved it.

Aruna, wish you were here. We could have cooked food alternative days, one day you and one day me . That way I would have learnt too many recipes from you.

Pari, grated beetroot? now thats very interesting. Looks like they are all set to make it very healthy with so many raw vegetables. I will try adding beetroot next time.

Manjula, I loved this without ambli/ambuli. Next time I will add that too to make it tangy .

Sia, sugarcane juice and churmuro looks like an awesome combo. I am craving for it now .

Cynthia, thanks for stopping by. Puffed rice is a special kind of crunchy rice. It is not anywhere like normal rice. It can be eaten as it is, no cooking. It is available in Indian stores. It is also called murmura/chirmuri etc. More about it in wiki

Roopa, I have a friend who studied in Hasan. Good to know you studied there.

Sushma, this is a bit different in taste from bhel. Do give it a try, it tastes awesome.

Thanks Swapna. I will try with garlic next time.

Pritya, Thank you so much. I am going to follow your instructions next time. I think it will increase the taste of this dish.

Dear Shilpa, The churmure-upkari looks so appetizing and the display of the vegetables on the plate is tempting. I also like to add a dash of turmeric along with the chilli powder. And mustard oil as an add-on instead of coconut oil. Slivers of garlic added to the hot oil also make a difference too.
