Upma is a simple yet comforting dish originated from South India. Now I want to make use of my leftover bread slice. The perfect way to clear those is making this Bread Upma.
For this recipe, the cubed bread is fried along with various seasonings and vegetables are often added during the cooking process, according to your preference.
Since Bread Upma is fully spiced, you don't any gravy at all. The flavor has a depth character and distinction. This quick meal is best served during breakfast or brunch.
