Poha benefits
Poha is a low-calorie, nutritious breakfast option that tastes fantastic when made with Indian spices like curry leaves, mustard seeds, and peanuts.
Poha contains extremely few calories. With only roughly 23% fat and 76.9% carbohydrates, it is among the greatest solutions for weight loss. Furthermore, it has a high fibre content, which delays feelings of fullness, lessens mid-meal cravings, and discourages overeating.
Ingredients for making Poha
- Thick chura (flattened rice) – 2 cups
- Onion – 1 (finely chopped)
- Green chillies – 2 (finely chopped)
- Peanuts – half a cup
- Mustard seeds – 1 teaspoon
- Curry leaves – 8 to 10
- Turmeric powder – half a teaspoon
- Salt – as per taste
- Lemon – 1
- Coriander leaves – 1 sprig (chopped)
- Oil – 3 tsp

Method for making Poha
First of all, take the poha in a sieve and wash it thoroughly twice. Do not soak it in water for too long; otherwise, it may become soft. After washing, keep it aside for 2 minutes.
Now, heat oil in a pan. Then add mustard seeds, curry leaves, green chillies and peanuts. Fry the peanuts till they turn red; take care that the peanuts do not burn.
Now add chopped onion and fry it till it becomes light golden.
After this, add turmeric powder and some salt and stir it, and add the washed poha and mix it well.
Now add lemon juice and green coriander to it.
Now your hot poha is ready; take it out on a plate and serve it with bhujia.
