Thanx to chatting with a friend, I was reminded about this breakfast item which I hadn't made in a long long time. Apart from remembering the recipe, a great tip that I got from her was the addition of egg to it. I really liked this tip and made this Bread upma with the addition of egg. So, thanx to her.
Ingredients
Bread Slices, torn into small pieces - 12
Onion, chopped - 1 big
Green chillies, chopped - 3 (or according to your spice level)
Tomato, chopped - 1 medium
Cumin/Jeera - 3/4 tsp
Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
Curry leaves - 5 (I did not use these)
Turmeric powder - a pinch (optional)
Egg - 2 (optional)
Cilantro - optional
Salt - to taste
Oil
Method
- Heat little oil in a pan, add the mustard seeds, when they start cracking, add the cumin seeds, green chillies and curry leaves.
- Add the onions and fry till they turn soft and transparent and then add the tomotoes and fry till soft.
- Add in the turmeric, salt and eggs and beat till they scramble evenly. Now add the bread pieces, add the cilantro and mix everything well. Switch off heat and keep covered.
- Serve hot.
Note : If you don't eat eggs, just omit the eggs and follow the rest of the procedure.

THis is fabulous!
aiee used to make this regularly with the "paav" we get in mumbai! the bestest!
We have tried it here, but the sliced bread is just not the same!
Should try it with the whole wheat rolls we get here.
Creative, to add the eggs - unfortunately I am allergic.
Hi Maya,
If you omit tomatoes, you can just sprinkle butter milk on the bread pieces after you stir the bread in the seasoning.
