About Idly upma

Idly Upma is a wholesome South Indian dish made by crumbling steamed rice cakes (idlis) and sautéing them with spices, vegetables, and aromatics like mustard seeds, curry leaves, and chilies. This clever variation transforms leftover idlis into a flavorful and nutritious meal. The dish can be customized with nutrient-rich ingredients like carrots, peas, and onions to boost its fiber and vitamin content. Its primary component, idli, is steamed and made from fermented rice and lentil batter, offering a good source of proteins, complex carbohydrates, and probiotics that support digestion. Sautéing is done with minimal oil, retaining the health benefits of the ingredients. However, moderation is key as excessive oil or high-carb toppings can affect its calorie count. Idly Upma serves as a satisfying, low-fat option for breakfast or a light snack, blending traditional Indian flavors with balanced nutrition.
