hi Shilpa,
Once i made poha but the poha’s taste was some thing like it has been soaked in water for long and i soaked it only for 5 min,also the poha i used was thin,i have a full packet of thin poha and am not knowing what to do with it.can u pls help?

Shilpa: Shruthi, you should not soak the thin poha. You should just sprinkle a handful of water after mixing it with all ingredients. If you soak it, it becomes watery.

Aha. I must try this with sambhar powder next time.

I also add some roasted peanuts and sprinkle some namkeen on top at the end. Makes for a crunchy poha.

You get the leaves at the chinese store. They are called “Taro leaves” in chinese. I’ve used them when my MIL was here and they are just as good.

When you post the recipe,please mention the exact cooking time. I avoid making them because I’m unsure of how long they should be steamed.
