Chat Style Bread Upma

I have an immense love for chat and street food.We use to eat so many varieties of chat when we lived in Bangalore.The same pani puri or masala puri would taste different in different places and all them would be yummy.The chatwalas were so good that they would never hesitate to share their recipes.If i like a dish i will be behind that person till i get the recipe :). This bread upma is one such dish I tasted in a chat shop in bangalore. I liked it very much and often prepare it at home.

Ingredients:
