Semia Uppuma

                           Eyes are to be wide opened by any one on seeing this post as the wrapper of the Semia , itself gives the recipe.

                           This post is only for me and the others, who are using only a part of the large pocket of Semia, which gives the quantity of water to be added for the whole packet. Each time, the entire content has to be measured in cups, the water converted into cups , arriving at the proportion which can at times go into oblivion.

                         The measurement is for the branded Semia, broken and short.
