Spicy Cracked wheat

I like to try new recipe with the same ingredients or the items which is available with me. Trying with new combinations and spices truly thrill me. When the recipe comes out great I share with you. Today I am sharing you the one of them. We generally make fada lapsi (sweet) out of cracked wheat, but today we took up same cracked wheat and made it spicy which can be served instead of rice or khichadi.

For preparing it you will need:-
1/2 cup of cracked wheat
1 cup of water
1-2 tablespoon of oil
1 teaspoon of cumin seeds
1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder
1/2 green chillies chopped ( adjust to your taste)
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
Salt to taste
3 tablespoon red onion
1 clove of garlic

Method:-
Take a pan and allow oil to heat then add cumin seeds and allow it to crackle. When they start crackling add  onion and garlic to it and roast it little bit, then add cracked wheat and roast it. Keep the flame to low. Allow it to roast till it get little brown colour. Then add water and add all the spices to it. Cover with lid and do check in between so they dont stick to pan. If it is uncooked and all water is absorbed then add little more water. When they are cooked your spicy cracked wheat is done. 
You can make it like pulav by adding vegetables of your choice, I have made it little simple but you can add or less the vegetables of your choice.You can top it up with fresh coriander leaves and lemon.
