• Tips:
• Kids will love this dish you can reduce the amount of spices that I've added 
• You can add even scramble eggs before mixing the bread into the masala 
• Instead of chillies you can add bell peppers 
• Rather than using whole spices try and use garam masala   

This recipe is a tribute to my grand ma I miss you Padma paatti.
she always used to prepare bread upma for me before going to school or pack some for school and she always used to feed me yogurt  before going to school...I felt very sad for loss of my grand parents they have inspired me in many ways I wish if they were still alive to see me pass on their nourishment wellness kind heart and thoughts to others...my message to young generation is not to tease your elders give respect and learn more from them to pass on to your generation if you have grand parents spend time with them instead of playing computer games and watching television atleast spend 1/2 hr time with your elders their blessings and support are important in future God bless you ....:)


I've done a detail video do watch and post your comments and suggestions....:)
