At Ananda Pure Veg Restaurant, we believe that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and in Indian cuisine, there’s no shortage of delicious and wholesome tiffin options that can kick-start your morning with energy and satisfaction. Whether you’re in the mood for something light or craving a hearty meal, our tiffin menu offers a wide variety of choices that cater to every palate. From classic South Indian favorites like Idly Sambar to more indulgent options like Paneer Dosa, our menu is crafted to bring the taste of home with a touch of tradition.
Let’s take a deep dive into our tiffin offerings and explore what makes each of these dishes special.
1. Idly Sambar & Sambar Idly
One of the simplest yet most beloved South Indian dishes, Idly Sambar is a staple for breakfast across India. Idlies are soft, steamed cakes made from fermented rice and urad dal batter. They are light, fluffy, and incredibly easy to digest, making them an ideal choice for a healthy breakfast. At Ananda Pure Veg Restaurant, we serve freshly steamed idlies with a bowl of flavorful sambar, a lentil-based vegetable stew seasoned with aromatic spices. Our Sambar Idly, where idlies are soaked in piping hot sambar, offers a tangy and wholesome burst of flavors in every bite.
2. Vada & Dahi Vada
If you prefer something crunchy to go with your idly, look no further than Vada. These crispy lentil fritters are golden brown on the outside and soft inside, with a spiced, savory flavor that pairs perfectly with chutney or sambar. We also serve Dahi Vada, a version of vada soaked in creamy yogurt and drizzled with tamarind chutney, which offers a refreshing contrast of textures and flavors.
3. Mysore Bonda
Another favorite from South India, Mysore Bonda is a deep-fried snack made from a batter of urad dal, rice flour, and spices. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, these bondas are deliciously spiced and served with coconut chutney. They make for a perfect snack or light meal option during breakfast.
4. Poori & Chapathi
For those who prefer bread-based options, we offer Poori and Chapathi. Poori is a deep-fried, puffed bread made from whole wheat flour, typically served with a side of potato curry or chole. Its crispy, golden texture is hard to resist. On the other hand, Chapathi is a healthier, oil-free alternative—soft, flat bread cooked on a tawa, often enjoyed with curry or chutney. Both are classics that bring comfort and satisfaction.
5. Parota
Parota, a flaky layered bread, is another breakfast favorite at our restaurant. Originating from Kerala, parotas are made by rolling and folding the dough to create soft, buttery layers that are crisped on the outside when cooked. Served with a rich vegetable curry, this dish is filling and flavorful, offering a perfect start to your day.
6. Pongal
For a heartier option, try our Pongal. A traditional South Indian dish, Pongal is made from rice and moong dal cooked together with spices, curry leaves, and black pepper, garnished with ghee and cashews. This dish is both nutritious and comforting, providing a warm, satisfying experience, especially when paired with sambar and coconut chutney.
7. Uthapam
Uthapam is often referred to as the Indian pancake. It’s a thick, soft dosa topped with a variety of ingredients like onions, tomatoes, green chilies, and carrots. At Ananda Pure Veg, we serve Uthapam with several topping choices, giving you a savory, tangy breakfast option that’s both filling and delicious.
8. Dibbarotti with Panakam
Dibbarotti is a traditional dish from Andhra Pradesh, a thick rice pancake that’s crispy on the outside and soft inside. It’s made using fermented rice batter and typically served with a side of tangy chutney. To balance its rich flavor, we offer it with Panakam, a refreshing drink made from jaggery, water, and spices like cardamom and black pepper. The combination of dibbarotti with panakam is truly one-of-a-kind, offering a taste of authentic Andhra cuisine.
9. Dosa Varieties
Dosa is one of the most iconic South Indian dishes, and at Ananda Pure Veg Restaurant, we offer a variety of dosas to suit all preferences.
- Plain Dosa: The classic, crispy dosa made from fermented rice and urad dal batter, served with chutney and sambar.
- Onion Dosa: A slight variation of the plain dosa, topped with finely chopped onions for a subtle crunch and sweetness.
- Karam Dosa with Ghee: This spicy dosa is flavored with a chili-based spread and finished with a drizzle of ghee, perfect for those who love a bit of heat.
- Paneer Dosa: A fusion dish where soft paneer cubes are stuffed inside the dosa, offering a rich and creamy experience.
- Masala Dosa: This classic version is filled with a spiced potato mixture, creating a perfect balance of flavors.
- Rava Dosa: Made with semolina (rava), rice flour, and spices, Rava Dosa is thin, crispy, and lacy in texture, offering a delightful crunch with every bite.
10. Pesarattu & Pesarattu + Upma
A popular Andhra specialty, Pesarattu is a dosa made from green gram (moong dal) batter. It has a slightly thicker texture than a regular dosa and is packed with protein and fiber. We also offer a combination of Pesarattu with Upma, where the crispy pesarattu is paired with a soft, savory semolina upma—creating a perfect blend of textures and flavors.
11. Upma & Masala Upma
For a simple yet satisfying meal, try our Upma, made from semolina cooked with spices, mustard seeds, curry leaves, and vegetables. It’s light, flavorful, and incredibly versatile. If you’re in the mood for something more indulgent, we also offer Masala Upma, where additional spices and ingredients like onions, tomatoes, and green peas are added to enhance the flavor.

Whether you’re a fan of light, fluffy idlies or prefer the crunch of a dosa, each dish on our menu is prepared with care, using fresh ingredients and traditional recipes.
