Arisi Upma is an easy and quick dish you can make for a breakfast or any meal for that matter, with broken rice and other ingredients that typically go into an Upma.
I normally make it with either homemade Rice Rava before, then I saw the ready made Rice Rava and always stock it so that making this upma is easy. If you want to know how to make the rava at home, you can check out my first method of Arisi Upma. Else if you are using store bought go ahead with this.
We are starting BM#93, Week 2 where I will be sharing some easy breakfast options.

I love to make Rava upma for breakfast, but my husband don't like it. So I often skip it. Now after looking this delicious rice upma, I am planning to give it a try.

I love it for the fact that it is quick to cook because of the absence of onions and the addition of coconut makes it more yummier.

Arisi upma is the only Upma that I will eat without throwing a fit. My mom made the best ones and the taste still lingers in my mouth. Looks so delicious Valli. I have not tried with store bought rice rava yet. Will give it a try.
