Poha

Poha, also known as flat rice, is a popular dish in Indian cuisine. It starts with thin, flat rice that’s light as air but stuffed with flavor. These rice flakes are gently washed and soaked to make them swell and soften. It is then seasoned with aromatic spices such as mustard seeds, cumin seeds and curry leaves, as well as with chillies and turmeric, giving the dish a warm, savory aroma. Poha can be modified to suit different tastes, with additional ingredients such as peas, peanuts or potatoes to add flavor and richness.
