This is a very popular and traditional andhra breakfast. Nutritious and healthy, they are made of whole moong dal (green gram) and prepared just as dosa. It is stuffed with upma (semolina porridge) and is relished with coconut chutney and sambar. It can be had as a tea-time snack too. Upma and pesarattu are in fact two different breakfast recipes, which is combined together and served.
