Hi, Thanks for the lovely recipe. I tried your recipe 2 times. The first time it was with exactly same amount of ingredients and it came out awesome. Next time I doubled the quantity of semiya and even the other ingredients, but it came out sticky. Any suggestions anyone???

You can roast the vermicelli in a toaster oven. It makes it very easy – 350 degrees F for 15 mins for 1 cup vermicelli. Stir once in the middle. Then its ready. The vermicelli should be placed on a flat ovenware.

Wow – Indira – you are a magician who can elevate a simple comfort food like semiya upma to a heavenly treat! BTW – during ekadashi fasts, can you partake pickles? Usually, you are not allowed food that is prepared in the past?

Ekadashi is a great tradition that celebrates the sacrifice. Ekadashi for my mom is just water and no solid foods at all. She says that sankalpam (thought) is what matters the most, when I list my ekadashi food to her. What we can and can’t have may be different, and ultimately insignificant as long as the sankalpam is there. God bless us all.
