Bread Egg Upma

The event COOK IT HEALTHY : PROTEINicious was successfully completed a day back. I feel so happy because it was my first event and the response was really good. The event wouldn't have been a success without your support. I thank each one of you who participated in this event. Thank you friends!! I will post the round-up as soon as possible. 

Bread upma might be one of the common breakfast dish. So what if we make it with a small twist, by adding eggs? Yesterday, I tried adding the eggs to bread upma. The upma came out good, with a different and great taste. Its so simple, finally pour the egg mixture to the bread upma you prepare. But make sure that bread doesn't get very soggy by adding more eggs. Also, if kids don't like eggs, they won't easily know that eggs are also included in the upma. Add more vegetables to make it healthy and colourful.



What you need?

7-8 Bread Slices
2 Eggs
1 Onion chopped
1 Tomato chopped
1/2 tsp Mustard seeds
1/2 tsp Cumin seeds
1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
1/2 tsp Chilli powder or to taste
1/2 " pc Ginger chopped
Salt
Pepper
Oil


How to prepare?

Beat the eggs with a little salt and pepper, keep aside. Cut the bread slices into small cubes.

Heat oil in a pan. Splutter mustard and cumin seeds. Add the ginger and saute for few seconds. Now add the onions and saute until they turn pink. Then add tomatoes and cook until tender. Add salt, turmeric powder and chilli powder, mix well. Now put the bread cubes and mix thoroughly. Finally, pour the eggs into this on a medium heat. Stir continuously until the eggs are dried up. Garnish with coriander leaves. Serve hot.

Serves 2-3

Notes:
* I added only 2 eggs. Add more eggs if you desire, but do not make the bread very soggy.
*Add other vegetables to make it healthy and colourful.
*You can also add some nuts too.
