How about making a regular rava upma with a twist? Something more healthy and tasty. I love to experiment in my kitchen. As usual Saturday is a upma day and I was tired of making regular vegetable upma wanted to try out something different. So what to do??? Had some beetroots and sprouts in my fridge. First thing that popped up was like will everybody like this? I just gave a try thinking if it’s a flop will quickly make sandwich but believe me the taste was phenomenal and now for few days regular veggie upma is replaced with beetroot an sprout upma .Try this out and let me know how it turned out for you .
