DELIGHTFUL IDLI UPMA



Idli Upma is a simple and pretty easy recipe with a smart play of flavours involved in making this healthy yet scrumptious snack.
While Onion, red chillies, Asafoetida, Curry leaves, Coriander greens, Ginger set off the inviting smell that is irresistible, the generous pour of Sesame Oil and lemon juice makes it a delectable treat.
