I tasted this dish in one of my relatives home. My husband is very choosy he likes rice upma but he didn't like this dish very much but, I liked it. This can be served as a dish in some occassion. Easy to eat when made as kozhukattai.

Add asafetoida, curry leaves, chili, ginger, onion, carrot, peas, salt and fry till the color changes slightly
Boil water in another vessel and add to vegetable.
When vegetables are half cooked add the rice rava and stir till water is absorbed and comes to kozhukattai dough consistency (i.e. tight dough from which you can shape it).
Leave it to cool and make to small kozhukattai.
In a idli cooker boil water. Apply sesame oil on the idli plate or cloth (the method which you use to cook idli). Keep the kozhuttai in the idli plate and cook like idli.
