Left Overs ~ Bread Upma
Used up half a loaf of left over bread to prepare upma for breakfast today. Took me exactly 12 mts to serve breakfast. The key to a good bread upma is to use stale bread (at least 3 days old) and place in a few tbsps of curd for a few minutes before preparation. Ensure the bread does not get soggy.
