Kambu idli upma recipe, Millet idli upma

Kambu idli upma is a healthy and quick to make breakfast/ Mini tiffin that tastes best when served with spicy chutney. I call this dish healthy because these idli’s are made with Kambu/ Bajra which is a millet is rich in fiber, protein, magnesium and iron. So if you are bored with regular idli in its form try this quick recipe and give your regular breakfast a healthy twist and form. You can try adding turmeric powder also for this dish while sauteing onions but I wanted to retain the kambu/ pearl millet color in the upma so skipped that step. So let’s get to the making!
