What it is

Anil was founded in 1984 and started out making roasted vermicelli, so this is the brand's oldest line. It is made from refined wheat flour and is already roasted golden, so it goes straight into the pan.

The strands are cut short, which makes it easy to eat with a spoon and easy for children. It works both ways: a savoury upma with onion and curry leaves, or a milky payasam with cashews and cardamom. Choosing between vermicelli? This short roasted semiya for payasam and quick upma; Anil Ragi Vermicelli for a darker, earthier upma; Anil Rice Vermicelli for lemon or coconut sevai.

Tip: For payasam, fry the semiya in a spoon of ghee for a minute first. It keeps the strands separate in the milk.

Goes well with: Heera Cashew Nuts, Swaad Green Cardamom, GRB Pure Ghee

Refined WHEAT Flour.
