Pori Uppuma

     Only  Bhel Puri and Pori Urundai come to our mind, using Pori.

          Today, I happened to see a cookery demo about Pori Uppuma. I tried at once as only common ingredients were required.

                Pori Uppuma was perfect. Later, discussing this with my daughter, she told me that this is common in Andhra and she had even relished this Uppuma in one of her friends' house. She is from Andhra and living away from our land, gives us more opportunities to move with a heterogeneous group.
