Poha or flattened rice is very commonly consumed in Indian households. The Indori Poha which is made in a different style with a typical spice powder. The taste of Indori Poha is khatta-meetha, meaning sour and sweet. For a sweet and floral undertone in the poha, fennel seeds and jeeravan masala is added too. Here I had cooked poha for my son's lunch box so no more spices added. You can add as per your taste and requirement and garnish it with indori sev, masala boondi or pomegranate 😄

Bhutte ka Kees (Spicy corn dish) Bhutte ka Kees (Spicy corn dish)
This is a super yummy Indian street food, made with corn. In India locally available corn is not very sweet like sweet corn. So this dish tastes best made with local indian variety. As we do not get that here in Japan so I have modified the recipe to use sweet corn kernels and corn grits to get that same flavor and taste. Do give it a try. Ashwini -
