Thanks for the recipe Charishma. I had heard that people make vermicelli upma and tried it on my own once and it was a disaster. I didnt know that you need to cook the vermecilli separately :) I didnt add the vegetables as my husband doesnt like any kind of veggies in his upma. Still turned out great
