UPMA A HEALTHY INDIAN BREAKFAST RECIPES

Upma not only tastes awesome but is also a
healthy breakfast. Upma is a tamil name. Uppu
means salt muva means flour. Using semolina
and variety of ingredients with salt we can make
various kinds of upma like vegetable upma,
Semiya(Vermicelli) upma,Oats upma,Bread Upma and
few more. Being a northern Indian I never got the
opportunity to eat this dish during school days
but when I was in college there was never a day
when I didnt eat Upma. First time I had upma at
a Road side stall I ate almost 3-4 plates . After
that morning upma visit was a daily routine. I
relished every bit of it, sometimes with coconut
chutney and sometimes with tea.
