Macaroni Upma/Pasta Upma


Upma is always a big no in my house but this one and the idly upma is exceptional.My son who is a picky eater and doesn't like to take Indian lunch box dishes likes this fusion upma.As he prefers pasta without cheese and pasta sauce I make masala pasta and upma once in a while for his lunch box.
Coming to the recipe,I exactly followed the rava upma recipe,instead I used the elbow shaped pasta.
