So last week I had been to Hyderabad and my husband and my father-in-law took me to a famous restaurant – Kamat. Its famous for south Indian dishes , and he ordered MLA pesarattu (pesarattu with upma is know as MLA pesarattu ) a delicacy from Andhra Pradesh and it was amazing , so filling and so yummy. So I decided then that I have to try this @ home, so for breakfast today I made it and my husband loved it, feeling so happy 🙂
This recipe is not only very easy to prepare but also very healthy.
