Idli Upma

This is a quick fix dish that you can make from the left over idli's from breakfast. I usually make this for dinner if there are left over idlis at breakfast. Atleast husband dear cannot complain that he is being served the same dish 2 times a day.

Ingredients:

• Cashew Nuts - 3 tbsp
• Jeera -  1 tsp
• Urud Dal - 1 tsp
• Channa Dal - 1 tsp
• Curry Leaves - 1 sprig
• Cinnamon - 1
• Cloves- 2
• Corriander Leaves - Chopped

• Salt to taste.

Method:

• Dip each idli in water, squeeze the water out and crumble.
• Heat oil in a kadai, splutter mustard seeds. 
• Add the cashew nuts and fry.
• Add Jeera, cinamon and cloves.
• Add red chilly, urud dal and channa dal
• When seasoning becomes brown enough, add curry leaves and cook.
