Ingredients:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • 2 cups thick poha (flattened rice)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 medium-sized onion, finely chopped<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 medium-sized tomato, chopped<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 green chili, chopped<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1\/2 teaspoon mustard seeds<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1\/2 teaspoon cumin seeds<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1\/4 teaspoon turmeric powder<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • A handful of curry leaves<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Salt to taste<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2 tablespoons oil<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2 tablespoons roasted peanuts (optional)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Fresh coriander leaves for garnish<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Lemon wedges for serving<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Instructions:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Rinse the poha under running water in a colander and let it sit for about 5 minutes to soften. Then, gently fluff it with a fork and set it aside.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and let them splutter. Then add cumin seeds and saut\u00e9 for a few seconds until they start to sizzle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Add chopped onions and saut\u00e9 until they turn translucent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Add chopped green chili, curry leaves, and turmeric powder. Mix well and saut\u00e9 for another minute.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Now, add chopped tomatoes and cook until they soften slightly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Add the rinsed and softened poha to the pan. Mix everything gently until well combined.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    7. Add salt to taste and mix well. If using roasted peanuts, add them at this stage and mix.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    8. Cover the pan with a lid and let the poha cook for about 2-3 minutes on low heat. This helps the flavors to meld together.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    9. Once done, turn off the heat. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
