Rava Kichadi

     Being 4 yrs old in married life, this is the second try of my "All time Disaster" recipe - "The Rava Kichadi". Before, giving a note about this, i need to say, Thank god, atleast now i got this perfectly done. Yes, my first try was a complete disaster. Check the story here. If it comes to any recipe related to Rava/Sooji, for sure, i'll be bit scared on giving a try. Because, somehow i'll miss out the proper proportion and it will become gooey. One day, when i was browsing my co-bloggers's space, this recipe tempted me suddenly. So, thought of trying it once again with lot of NO HOPE(!) in my mind. Thank god, it came out very well. Me and H literally enjoyed having this.
