## Notes

* firstly, add vegetables of your choice like carrot, capsicum, cabbage to make it more nutritious.

* also make sure to soak the rava atleast for 20 minutes, else rava chilla will not taste good.

* additionally, use more curd to enhance the flavour of instant chilla recipe.

* finally, serve **rava chilla** / **suji ka cheela** hot or pack to your lunch box.
