Maharashtrian Poha With Healthy Twist – Super Healthy Breakfast

Think of a healthy and quick Indian breakfast to kickstart your day. Poha is probably going to be one of the option to come to your mind. Poha is my one the favorite breakfast. It’s easy to make and it tastes delicious. I always try to make a different variety of poha sometimes I add vegetables, temper with fennel seeds or kadi leaves, serve with fruits. Poha is a wholesome dish made of flattened rice is immensely popular across the country, particularly in Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. I have already shared different types of poha recipes – Indori poha recipe, Matar Poha, Spinach Sprouts Brown Poha, Brown Poha with Grapes, Pea Pineapple Poha, Vegetable Brown Poha, Sprouts Pomegranate Poha, Carrots Pea Poha, Banarsi Chura Matar. This time I made Maharashtraian poha with little changes. Generally, Maharashtrian Poha is made out of white poha, onion, potato, green chilies and tempered with curry leaves. Garnished with peanuts, lime juice, and lots of coriander leaves. In this recipe, I replaced potato with sweet potatoes and white poha with red poha. As sweet potatoes are a rich sauce of fiber as well as containing a good array of vitamins and minerals including iron, calcium, selenium, and they’re a good sauce of most of our B vitamins and vitamin C. Whereas, a healthier variation to the everyday white rice poha is the red poha or brown poha, which is made from red rice. Brown poha is slightly coarser in texture as compared to white poha. Brown poha is rich in fiber, vita
