Notes:
- Adjust the chili according to your taste.
- I used MTR semiya here, as the pack suggests to roast the semiya before use. Normally i dont when i use anil semiya variety.
- If you wish, add few cilantro at the end.
- You can add some veggies as per your liking.
- Even without roasting the semiya also, the upma would turned out wonderful.I have tried many times without roasting.
Nice
