4. Combine and Cook:

   • Add turmeric powder and salt. Mix well.

Tips:

• For a richer flavor, you can add a teaspoon of ghee to the tempering spices.
• To make it more nutritious, you can add vegetables like carrots, peas, or beans to the upma.
• For a tangy flavor, you can squeeze some lemon juice over the upma before serving.
