IDLI

                     Most often eaten at breakfast or as a snack, idlis are usually served in pairs with chutney, sambar, or other accompaniments. Mixtures of crushed dry spices such as milagai podi are the preferred condiment for idlis eaten on the go

Poha Upma

It is a very common break fast and a simple, quick snack item. It also called as rice flakes in English and poha in Hindi. It can be packed to kids as lunch to school.

I have seen my Mom preparing with fine Atukulu but I tried with Medium variety one. It can even be prepared with thick variety.

To make it more nutritious you can also add sprouts and vegetables and a few drops of lemon juice to it, but for me this is fine.

Dal Tadka

In Dal Tadka the dal is cooked till soft with onions, tomatoes and spices. A tempering/chaunk/tadka of spices like cumin seeds, mustard seeds, asafoetida, red chillies etc is prepared. This tempering is added to the cooked dal and the dal is served immediately. Tempering is very much a part of cooking indian food. In fact we temper almost everything like dal, veggies dishes, chutneys.

It can be had with phulka, chapatti, paratha or rice. people having tandoori rotis, naan or garlic naan, aloo paratha or onion paratha either with moong dal tadkaor with dal makhani.
