Idli Upma

Have some left over idlis? Then here's how you can turn them into another quick breakfast dish.

Ingredients

4-5 idlis

3-5 shallots sliced thin

1 green chilli chopped

1/4 tsp mustard seeds

1/4 tsp urid dal

few curry leaves

1 tsp chopped coriander leaves

2 Tbsp oil

salt to taste

Method

• Chop or crumble the idlis into small pieces and keep aside.
• Heat oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds
• Once they begin to crackle add the urid dal and curry leaves.
• Mix well and add the sliced shallots, green chilli and salt(add less salt as the idlis already have salt in them).
• Fry until the shallots turn golden brown. 
• Now tip in the chopped idilis to the fried onions and mix well.
• Fry for 2-3 minutes until the idli pieces are well coated with the onion mixture.
• Garnish with some finely chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.
