Bread Upma is a simple breakfast or snack recipe which can be prepared very easily and made in minutes.

Muntha Masala | Pidata Kinda Pappu | Puffed Rice Masala | Bhel Masala

Muntha Masala is a delicious Andhra street food and this is my much loved food from childhood.



The street person or the bandiwala place an earthen vessel on hot coal with a stack of maramaralu/puffed rice and prepare this Masala by taking the puffed rice from below the vessel so that the masala food can be prepared by the roasted puffed rice.

So this name comes for this recipe as pidata (vessel) kinda (under) pappu (masala/food).The bandiwala place all the ingredients and he mixes well in a coconut shell with a stick and serves in a newspaper/banana leaf (potlalu) with palm leaf spoon.

Corn and tomatoes pair perfectly with milky crunch of fresh corn and juicy acidity of tomatoes.
