Rava Upma | Sooji Upma | Easy & healthy morning breakfast recipe | with step by step pics & video. I had tried a lot of proportions of rava & water. But the best & every time failproof proportion is shared here. I adapted this from my mom. She says while making rave upma rava to water proportion should be 1:2, while for a rava kesari it is 1:3. This is the correct proportion for a good textured rava upma recipe.
Before using rava, roast rava on low to medium heat until fragrant, around 5 to 6 minutes, stirring continuously. Sooji shouldn’t turn brown from the bottom so be careful. Remove sooji from pan and transfer it to another bowl.
