Notes :-
----------
# Instant rice sevai has very soft texture. You need not boil it, instead simply immerse it in boiling water.
# Add veggies of your choice, You can also include grated paneer. 
# I have used sambar powder for flavor, its optional. Sambar powder itself has spice so I did not add chillies, so adjust accordingly.
# You can also pre-cook the veggies in a microwave and then add it after sauteing the onions.
