Sooji Poha Cheela (Poha and Semolina Dosa) - A great breakfast recipe. A quick dish to make for breakfast or after school snack. These cheelas are instant breakfast or evening snack option with not much of work in it. A great instant dosa recipe. This batter can be used immediately to make cheela or can be prepared ahead and refrigerated for 2 to 3 days. If looking for a vegan version, skip yogurt and use water. If you prefer a spicier version, you could add finely chopped onions and green chillies. You can also add some grated carrot to it to make it healthy and colorful. This is a kid friendly snack, so I have left them out. Serve these cheelas with chutney and sambhar to make it a wholesome and tasty meal.

Add poha-yogurt mixture and little water to a blender and blend to a smooth paste.
