Method

Crumble the left over idlis and keep it aside. [I usually keep the idlis overnight in refrigerator to make the idli upma, the next day morning I crumble it. Then I, sprinkle very little water, little salt and mix really well and keep it aside.]

Heat about 1 ½ tbsp of oil in  a kadai, splutter mustard seeds, add cumin seeds, urad dal, Bengal gram dal and fry until golden brown color.

Now add dry red chillies, curry leaves , asafoetida and fry until they turn crispy.

Add the crumbled idli and mix really well and cook for about 2-3 minutes and switch off the stove.

Yes! Tada ! Idli upma is ready to be enjoyed. This upma does not any side dish, it is great all by itself.
