Idli chilli fry



In Southern states of India, Idli is the basic breafast that is had with sambhar and choicest chutneys. Leftover, idli is given a makeover as idli upma or idli fry. Even restaurants serve idli fry. Generally, idli fry is a deep fried food with various spices and condiments added to it. It varies from restaurant to restaurant.  Here, I have presented idli chilli fry that is stir fried.  It has the zing of chilli flakes, tang of tomato sauce, flavours of capsicum and dosa podi.

Ingredients:
Leftover Idlis -5/6
Onion -1
Capsicum -1/2
Chilli flakes -1tsp
Dosa podi -2tsps
Tomato sauce -2tsps
Chopped coriander leaves -2tsps
Salt and oil -As required


Method:
Cut the idlis into cubes. Smear dosa podi and little oil over them. Chop the onion and capsicum into strips. In a frying pan fry the onions in little oil. When it turns translucent in colour, lower the flame and add the capsicum. Stir for few seconds. Then, add the chilli flakes, idli pieces, tomato sauce and coriander leave. Stir fry for few seconds till everything is blended well.
