01
Step
Preparation
Rinse the Poha flakes in a fine mesh sieve under cold running water for about 30 seconds. This helps remove any impurities and excess starch.
02
Step
Preparation
Drain the water and let the Poha sit for about 5 minutes to soften slightly. This step helps the Poha absorb the flavors better.
03
Step
Tempering
Heat a large pan or kadai over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of mustard oil or ghee.
04
Step
Tempering
Once the oil is hot, add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Let them sizzle and pop.
05
Step
Tempering
Add a pinch of asafoetida (hing) and sauté for a few seconds until fragrant.
06
Step
Sautéing
Add the chopped onion, green chili, and a pinch of salt. Sauté until the onions are translucent and lightly browned.
07
Step
Sautéing
Add the chopped tomato and sauté for another 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes are soft and mushy.
08
Step
Adding Spices and Poha
Add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, and garam masala powder. Mix well to combine.
