Most of us make Semiya Upma or Rava Kichadi. Here, in this recipe, we are using both Semiya and Rava and making this delicious Vermicelli Sooji Bhath | Semiya Rava Kichadi. My kids like Semiya upma. They call it as Noodles upma. I always add mixed vegetables to upma to make it more healthier and tastier. In Semiya upma, most of the vegetables don’t get incorporated well with semiya like they do in Rava kichadi. But if we add Rava along with Semiya, the Kichadi will be thick and the vegetables will also be easily incorporated with Semiya and Rava. This Vermicelli Sooji Bhath can be served with Coconut Chutney or pickle!
