A small suggestion,
When water is added while cooking, there is a chance that the upma becomes soggy. To avoid that there is an easy step.
1. After frying the semiya, put it in a large bowl of boiled water for 3-4mins.
2. Filter it and wash with cold water
3. Add little oil and mix it to avoid sticking together.
4. Now just mix with other ready garnishing stuff and cook for 2mins.
Upma ready!
