To begin making the Mixed Vegetable Idli Upma Recipe, heat a teaspoon of oil in a heavy bottomed pan; add in the mustard seeds and allow it to crackle for a few seconds.Then add in the split urad dal and allow it to roast and turn a light brown in color.
Once the dal is roasted we will add in the chopped onions, then the ginger, green chillies and curry leaves. Saute on medium heat until the onions are transparent. Add the carrots, capsicum and beans - sprinkle salt and roast the vegetables on medium heat.
You can optional sprinkle some water and cover the pan and steam cook the vegetables.
Once tender we will add in the turmeric powder and the cut idlis and some salt to taste.
Sprinkle a little water so the idlis don't get too dry, you want them to be moist and flavorful when the Mixed Vegetable Idli Upma is done.
Stir all the ingredients well. Turn the heat to low, cover the pan and allow the Mixed Vegetable Idli Upma to simmer for about 3 to 4 minutes.
After 3 to 4 minutes, add in the chopped mint leaves and stir. Transfer the Mixed Vegetable Idli Upma to a serving bowl and serve hot.
