Add chana dal and urad dal and fry it in the tadka for 2 minutes. Add onion, carrot, french beans and peas to it. Cover it with a lid and simmer it for 2-3 minutes till it gets half cooked.

Within 2-3 minutes, the Upma should be ready. It should not be too dry or too wet. Sprinkle coriander leaves.
