One of my favorite breakfast item is Semiya upma. This filling tasty dish is often served with podi or pickle topped with some ghee. There are different types of Semiya (Vermicelli) upma, some with combination of vegetables and some even with use of meat. Here is a simple version from my kitchen, for beginners to try.

2 medium sized Tomatoes south indian dish Healthy recipe for breakfast… Restaurant style fish tikka, a punjabi dhaba dish. My favorite sweet. Also can see that many requesting for it for long. Thus, I am posting the one I learnt from Meenakshi Ammal's Samaithu Paar . Puliyodarai, is a speciality of the South Indian coastal state of Tamil Nadu. Suppossed to be a country side classic, something which we don't get to taste very often. Mild tangy flavour mixed with sweet coocnut milk gives this rasam a sweet & sour taste. Home style spicy garlic chutney, perfect side for idli dosa! Snack or chat made with mashed potato, carrots and green peas. |
