Cracked wheat

I have made goduma rava upma quite  a few times now. But today without sweating for too long. From the Tabbouleh salad episode, I wanted to try making the goduma rava upma in the bulgur style of letting it sit in boiled water. I put 2 and 1/2 cups of water to boil in a seasoning of ginger, onions, cumin, green chili and salt. Attending to the baby, I asked my husband to put in 1 cup of cracked wheat #1 (size # if you are wondering what this sizing is all about). 20-30 min later, I recalled that we should have put in 1 and 1/2 cup of cracked wheat. I went into the kitchen expecting a water logged dish. But there were few depressions indicating that te grain to water ratio was good.

I saw this split chickpea addition to it and wondered why I didnt think of it before. I know of a recipe with soaked split chickpea and onion curry (diced onions, but now I am thinking another recipe would be to give the special treatment to onions with a blend and then fried well - elevates any main ingredient even simple one like soaked split chickpea. oh no, now reimaging all the great food could have been if done well - thinking chole curry -- its like once you know a mistake and have tons and tons of papers, to go back and correct). In some months, when for religious reasons, people dont eat onion, t...
