Ingredients

How to make Idli Upma

  1. Heat the oil, add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, curry leaves, and the lentils.
  2. When they change color add the onions and sautè until they become translucent.
  3. Add ginger and carrot and stir for a minute.
  4. Add tomato, peas, chili powder, salt, and turmeric; cook for about 3 minutes until the tomatoes lose their shape.
  5. Crumble the idli into the pan, coat well with the mix and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  6. Sprinkle with coriander leaves and serve. 

The dish is delicious on its own but goes well with chutneys, sambar or fresh raita.

Since it is a breakfast recipe, you might consider to serve it with a fried or poached egg on top.

Idli upma is also delicious in an omelet. You need to do it in two batches: remove half of the mix from the pan, add the beaten eggs and fry it to your preferred consistency. Now make the second batch or serve as half original idli upma, half omelet.
