TRS Semolina Coarse 500g

TRS Semolina Coarse is durum wheat milled to a coarse grain — the bava or rava grade, noticeably gritty between the fingers. The coarse cut is what gives upma and rava dosa their texture; fine semolina in the same dish turns pasty.

Best for

• Upma and rava khichdi
• Rava dosa and rava idli
• Sooji halwa, and coating for fried fish

How to cook it

Dry-roast the semolina in a pan over medium heat for four or five minutes until it smells nutty and no longer looks chalky — skip this and the upma will be raw-tasting and lumpy. Use roughly 2.5 parts water to 1 part semolina for upma, poured in hot and stirred hard as it goes. For halwa, roast in ghee instead of dry.
