I remember reading somewhere that every food comes with a purpose & repurpose. Do not waste..create something new with extras. Though not a lover of upma, there is one breakfast recipe which I had been enjoying since childhood, The repurposed idli. Learned this recipe from my mother and one of my favourites.
