Posted by 365DaysVeg on December 25, 2007

Idli Upma is one of most commonly made recipes with leftover idlis. This is such a simple food yet so satisfying that even a finicky eater will not complain. Growing up, my Mom used to make this delicious dish for breakfast or evening tiffin and all of us would relish it. So,here is the simplest recipe for left over idlis.

Left over idlis broken into pieces
1 onion cut length-wise
1 green chillie
Kari leaves optional
1 tsp of black mustard seeds
1 tsp of urad dal
1/2 tsp of turmeric powder
1 -2 tsp of oil
Salt to taste

Heat oil in a pan, add the mustard seeds to splutter. Then add the urad dal and saute until golden brown. Now add the green chillies, kari leaves, onions and saute until they are translucent.
