Dadpae Pohe is a traditional Maharashtrian dish made using thin variety of flattened rice. This is a quick and easy recipe requiring no cooking at all. Dadpae Pohe makes for a quick nutritional breakfast or snack when guests arrive unannounced or just as an evening snack. It is a good option to serve the guests during Haldi Kunku which is a traditional function held in Maharashtrian bones during the entire period of Makar Sankrant!
This recipe uses the thin variety of flattened rice and hence does not require pre soaking of the rice flakes or cooking except some basic tempering. The method of preparing this dish is quite easy and requires minimum ingredients. While serving this dish during functions, the overall taste can be enhanced by sprinkling some sev over it!

In a mixing bowl, spread the thin flattened rice at the bottom.
4

Spread the onion coconut mixture over it.

Heat a kadhai and add oil to it for tempering. Add the raw peanuts and fry till they change colour. Drain and set aside.
6

Now to the same hot oil, add the mustard seeds and as soon as they splutter, add the asafoetida, chopped green chillies, curry leaves. Switch off the flame and add the turmeric powder.
7

Pour this tempering over the prepared pohe mixture.
8

Give the entire mixture a light toss.

Cover and keep aside for about 10 to 15 minutes for all the flavours to amalgamate and the pohe to soften.
