Steps

1

Use thick or medium thick variety of poha available in market.
2

I have added turmeric powder,salt and sugar into the soaked poha. That way we get it evenly mixed with poha.
3

The amount of oil is absolutely necessary in poha. Do not reduce the oil in order to make it healthy. It won’t taste good. A little generous amount of oil is necessary for tasty poha recipe.
4

While cooking the onions do not overcook them. Let them sweat a little and that’s it. The crunchy bite of onions taste great in poha.
5

Heat oil splutter some mustard seeds, add hing, and the add ground nut fry until it turns little brown in colour.Then add green chillies, curry leaves and potato fry for 5 mins cover the lid of pan while cooking potato.
6

Add onion once potato cooked lightly add little salt give a nice mix cover with lid once again and cook.
7

Add soaked poha to potato mix well and cover with lid again and cook for 3-4 mins. Add lemon juice and switch off the flame.
8

Poha must be served immediately after cooking. If you keep it for longer time it might get dry. Just add a tablespoon of milk and mix it. That might give enough moisture to poha and make it better.

My Tip: Hing is optional. As many gets acidity when they eat poha to avoid acid reflux you can add hing.
