Samba Godumai (Broken wheat) Upma

 Befor I got married, the moment my mom says that we have Upma for dinner or breakfast I would make my face and go without eating. So, after sometime, mom used to cook something else and not Upma.

After I got married, I look Upma at least once a week. (LOL). It is quick and easy to cook. This Upma unlike the regular rawa upma is not complicated and should not require continuous stirring when adding teh rawa to the hot water.

Now coming to this recipe, I love this than the regular Rawa Upma. It tastes so delicious and it is light and perfect for dinner.
