2
250 grams Flattened rice - poha
2 tbsp Oil
1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
3 pieces Green Chilies
1 piece Onion
1 piece Potato
quarter cup Roasted peanuts
quarter cup Fresh coriander leaves
1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
Salt as per taste

Tips
Adjust the spice level according to your preference by increasing or decreasing the amount of green chilies and Indori Poha Masala.
Ensure the poha is soft but not mushy after rinsing to maintain its texture in the final dish.
Customize the toppings by adding grated coconut or sev for added texture and flavor.

Rinse flattened rice (poha) under running water until it becomes soft. Drain excess water and set aside.
In a pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Allow them to splutter.
Add finely chopped green chilies, onions, and diced potatoes. Sauté until onions turn translucent and potatoes are cooked through.
Add the washed and drained poha to the pan. Mix well to combine with the onion-potato mixture.
Sprinkle turmeric powder and salt over the poha. Stir gently to ensure even distribution of spices.
Sprinkle 2-3 teaspoons of homemade Indori Poha Masala over the poha. Mix thoroughly to coat the poha with the masala.
Add roasted peanuts and chopped coriander leaves. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the poha for a tangy kick. Mix well and serve hot.
