Bread Upma

We all have bread almost everyday. This recipe will spice up the bread and make it more appealing and delicious to eat. It is quick and easy to prepare with minimum ingredients. Feel free to use any garnish of your choice. I used savoury Indian vermicelli called 'sev' but you can use grated cheddar or mozzarella or even shavings of your favourite veggies such as carrots or cucumber which will go towards the five a day.



Serves 2

INGREDIENTS

2 slices of bread, chopped
1 small onion finely chopped
1 finger chilli finely chopped
1/4th tsp turmeric powder
2 tbsp. yogurt
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
1 tbsp. Sunflower oil (or any oil of your choice)
A little chopped coriander (optional)
Handful of ready roasted peanuts
Salt and sugar as per your liking
Any other garnish of your choice

METHOD

In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat and add the seeds, they will temper in a minute.
Add the chopped onions, chilli and a pinch of salt, keep stirring until the onions are light golden brown.
Add the chopped bread, turmeric powder and let it sear in the masala, when the underside is slightly brown, add the yogurt and stir well to incorporate.
Add salt and sugar to taste.
Finally, add the peanuts, coriander.
Switch off the flame, and garnish with any item of your choice. Serve hot.
