{ Note }
*      Even     the     thick     Red   poha    we     can     use    for   this     recipe.

*      If     the     poha   is  left   in  water     for   a  longer     time ,     the   poha   will   become   soggy ,       and    the   final      result   will   not  be   upma ,      but   a  big     lump  of  junk: ).
