Easy Idli Upma

Idli upma, is a crumbled version of idlis added with onion tempering.I love idli upma lot,but didnt get any chance for cooking that ,as idlis are my husband's enemy.Today my husband went for a dinner party,luckily I had some idlis  left over.I prepared this ,happily.So silly,but still small silly happiness will always move u a lot. After some months , I am having this. The crunchyness of chanan dal will make u feed ur tummy more.I enjoyed a lot having this dish.
