Shavige is a readily available product through the grocery stores but only at Chukki Mane we make our own set of rice shavige by pressing using antique noodle makers used by the previous generations. Rice vermicelli upma is a delicious recipe prepared using Shavige or Indian vermicelli. Here is the list of ingredients required to prepare the dish.
- 2 cups of Shavige (Rice or Ragi)
- 1 large sized onion
- 2-3 green chillies
- 1-2 sprigs of curry leaves
- 1 teaspoon of Urad daal
- 1/2 teaspoon of cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon of mustard seeds
- Juice from a medium sized lemon
- A handful of coriander leaves (chopped pieces)
- 1 tablespoon of oil
- Salt for the taste
Here is the procedure to preparing a delicious plate of Shavige Upma
- Heat 5 cups of water in a pan, boil it and add the Shavige into it.

- Boil it until the vermicelli gets cooked.
- Once it is cooked, take it off from the pan and drain the hot water.
- Now, add 1 teaspoon of oil and toss it gently so that the oil gets applied to the surface of the cooked vermicelli. This would prevent the vermicelli from sticking to each other.
