Today was the laziest Sunday I ever had. My day started with
a tea made by my husband(Hurray!!!). I was surprised indeed. I was thinking
what to do for breakfast. I really miss the food made by my amma. One of the
best things a girl misses after her marriage is the food made by her mom. No
matter how best the girl cooks, nothing can replace the lovely food made by
mom. I was wondering which food I can make what amma makes. I wanted to spend
only 5 minutes for cooking break fast today. The bulb glew.. And Idea!! Aval
Upma. My mouth started recalling the taste of it made by amma. I thought to try
for the same taste. I got 50% in it. The rest which was missing in it is the
love of a mother.
I used
the medium size poha/aval for the upma. It is one of the easiest recipe I knew.
