try semiya with masala and dry mashrooms
Praathi, sounds good.
I used macaroni-vermicelli. Boiled it like I boil macaroni & threw the water away. Proceeded with the rest of the recipe as is( so it was more of a stir-fry). I also added grated coconut & peanuts at the end. An interesting breakfast option.
Jackie, good idea
