Rava Upma

To be frank,one of my ever favourite is ‘Rava upma’! It never bored me. I was brought up eating rava upma a zillion times. Be it for breakfast, if mom makes,
I will be the most happy to eat it. Now I can remember those days in which she prepared upma. I used to miss it a lot when I went to
hostel and missing it very badly now. So after reaching home, the very first day I'll suggest rava upma for breakfast.
