Mint semiya upma

I was scolding myself while preparing this, when I couldnt recall the perfect ratio that worked last time.

While making samiya, I thought of putting in the mint paste. Once cooked, it was my turn to admire he well coated samiya with specks of mint pesto.
instead of peanuts, I added Peas.
