If your mornings are in need of a delicious boost, there’s nothing quite like Andhra tiffins to do the trick. These traditional South Indian breakfast options are light, filling, and bursting with flavor — especially when paired with spicy chutneys and hot filter coffee. 

Let’s walk you through some iconic Andhra tiffins you can enjoy from the comfort of home or order online from Sankranti India. 

1.Pesarattu – Andhra’s Signature Green Gram Dosa

Made from whole green gram, Pesarattu is a protein-rich crepe that’s crispy outside and soft inside. Often served with upma and ginger chutney, it’s a go-to option among Andhra tiffins. 

2. Upma – Fluffy, Savory Comfort

Lightly spiced with mustard seeds, curry leaves, and green chilies, Upma is a hearty start to your day. In Andhra households, it’s often paired with chutneys or even stuffed inside a Pesarattu. 

3. Idli with Spicy Andhra Chutneys

The humble Idli gets a fiery makeover in Andhra cuisine thanks to chutneys made from gongura, tomato, coconut, or peanut. Among Andhra tiffins, this is a crowd favorite for all ages. 

4. Poha (Atukula Upma) – Flattened Rice with a Twist

Poha in Andhra style features mustard, turmeric, curry leaves, and green chilies — making it one of the most flavorful and quick-to-prepare Andhra tiffins. 

5. Rava Dosa – A Crunchy Delight

Crispy and lacy, Rava Dosa is another tiffin classic, perfect with a side of Andhra-style tomato or onion chutney. 

6. Punugulu – Crispy Deep-Fried Dumplings

Made from leftover idli or dosa batter, Punugulu are crunchy on the outside and fluffy inside. Served with spicy chutney, it’s the snack version of Andhra tiffins that works well for breakfast too. 

7. Mysore Bonda – Soft, Fried and Spicy

Also known as Ulundu Bonda, this dish is crispy on the outside and pillow-soft inside. It pairs beautifully with coconut chutney or sambhar and is an irreplaceable item among Andhra tiffins.
