My Southern Indian friends introduced me to pooha. It’s a great breakfast dish.

  • 2 cups poha (flattened rice)
  • 1 cup potato
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 tsp mustard seeds
  • 5 leaves curry leaves
  • 2 whole green chili pepper
  • 1 medium onion chopped fine
  • 1 cup broccoli
  • 1/4 cup spanish peanuts
  • 1/8 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 whole fresh lime juice
  • dash of salt
  • 10 sprigs fresh cilantro diced fine

Recipe

Rinse poha in colander for 1 minute. Set aside colander.
 
Boil water in pan and add potatoes. Cook for around 7 to 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
 
 
Heat up skillet. When skillet is hot add the coconut oil. When oil is hot add the mustard seeds, curry leaves, and onions. Sauté until onions are golden brown.
Add the broccol, potatoes, peanuts, and turmeric. Sauté for a few minutes. Add the poha and sauté for a few minutes. Add salt and the lime juice. Garnish with fresh coriander
