This Vegetable Rava Upma focuses on balance rather than restriction. A measured amount of rava is paired with finely chopped vegetables, cooked using controlled water absorption and minimal oil. The tempering builds flavour without heaviness, while lemon juice added at the end keeps the dish light on the stomach. Designed for steady energy release, this upma works well as a filling breakfast or early lunch during weight-focused meal planning.
