Aloo Matar Poha (pan Indian hybrid recipe) Aloo Matar Poha (pan Indian hybrid recipe)
Aloo Poha (flattened rice with peas spices and potato) is a common breakfast in many parts of India. Many street vendors sell it early in the morning and some serve a side of a pea curry with it. My best poha experience was in Bhopal and Varanasi. This recipe is a mix of Maharashtra, MP and UP style poha. We skipped the shredded coconut to preserve the North Indian taste. It is a nice dish for brunch and should be eaten either with pickle, chopped onions and even with a sprinkle of sugar. Anmen
