What is Vermicelli or semiya?
Vermicelli is a traditional type of pasta similar to spaghetti. Semiya are either made from whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour or rava (semolina). Moreover, while making semiya upma, I prefer semiya made from whole wheat flour as they are more healthy than the ones made from maida.
