Sometimes we may not have time to cook something fast and this is my favourite breakfast recipe when there is a lot of bread too which has been lying around for quite sometime. By adding tomato ketchup it give a nice flavor to the upma and i got this tip from one of our blogger friends but i cannot remember who it was.Sorry about that but i am sure you will all enjoy it.

Preparation Time: 10 min

Cooking Time: 20 min

Serves 2

Ingredients:

• 7 slices bread ( I used brown bread )
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1.5 cup veggies (cauliflower, bell Pepper, peas, carrot, potato)
• 1/4 tsp cumin seeds
• 2 tbsp tomato ketchup
• 1/2 cup tomatoes
• 1 tbsp oil
• 3 slit chilies
• 1 tsp chopped cilantro for garnishing
• salt to taste

Cooking Procedure

Dice each slice of bread to 1 cm cubes (12 pieces)

Heat a pan and put these cubes into it and dry toast it, and keep it aside

Heat oil in the same pan, add cumin seeds, chilies and onion fry till onion is translucent, then add veggies and fry till they become tender, then add tomatoes and cook until it becomes soft.

Add salt and tomato ketchup and mix nicely, then add the bread cubes and stir it fast because the mixture should be blended with all pieces,garnish with coriander

Serve hot
