The recipe is like the South Indian Bread upma, however, with an entirely different tempering. Bread upma is cooked using the traditional South Indian tempering that uses curry leaves, chana Dal, and Urad Dal.
The spicy bread masala here has a distinct flavor because ground spices are utilized in this recipe.
It makes a great nighttime snack when the monsoons are in full swing. I cooked this a while ago to make use of leftover bread.
I’ve tried regular bread slices. It is also possible to utilize pav buns, french baguettes, or other types of bread.
I’ve tried pav Bhaji masala and garam masala for spiceing up the food. But you could make it with any of these. We like this dish with Chaat masala, chopped onions, and coriander leaves sprinkled on top.
