When we have left over Uppittu/ upma, it is a wonderful opportunity to turn it into evening tea time snack, that too lip smacking good Nippattu /vade. Which is a perfect pair with Hot tea or coffee.
Normally, left overs would sit idle in the corner of dining table and will not attract any one’s attention. For this reason, I normally make it a point to give some modification and present it as a new dish 😉 😀
Here I have taken Lima beans added Avarekai Uppittu. You can take any Uppittu/ upma of your choice.
How I made this-
Ingredients:
Left over Upma – one bowl
Onion – 1 big
Green chillies – 2
Curry leaves – 1 spring
Coriander leaves – 2 table spoons (chopped)
Crushed peanuts – little
Rice flour – to bind.
Salt
Method:
-Chop onion, curry leaves, green chillies, coriander leaves.
-Mix in all the chopped items, salt, peanuts into left over upma and mix nicely.Add required amount of rice flour, bind and make a small roundel, pat a flat disc .
– Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180° C for 15 to 20 minutes or until done.
-Upma already has oil or ghee content in it. So, no need to put any oil. If at all needed, you can add couple of tea spoons of oil while binding.
-Serve with Coffee or tea as a evening snack.
