Tomato Upma Recipe!

Hello Foodies!

South Indian is not only my favourite food now, but also Raag’s. So I try new south Indian recipes now. Tomato Upma is a new addition to my list. It is a healthy breakfast variety prepared with sooji (rava) and tomato as main ingredients. It is a quick and a simple breakfast dish that you can make without any preparations. You can add a variety of vegetables as per your choice to make it more nutritious for your breakfast time. I made the recipe simpler but when I actually cooked it, I loaded it with veggies to make it really nutritious and filling for my baby.

Let’s see how we make it.
