Description

Poha is flattened rice flakes.

Method:

In a large bowl mix water, salt and poha. Leave them for 1 minute and drain the water off. Keep this poha aside.

If using raw peanuts dry roast them in a pan for 3-5 minutes and keep them a side. This step can be skipped if using dry roasted peanuts.

In a sauce pan or cooking pot dry roast mustard seed, red chilli, cashews, urad dal and fennel seeds  for a minute. Add chopped chillies and chopped ginger and mix well. Add curry leaves, turmeric, hing, stir it for a minute. Add one to two tablespoons of water to prevent the contents sticking to the pan. Add lemon juice from one lemon and 1/2 teaspoon of salt – stir. Add drained poha and mix well. Stir and let it cook for 2 minutes.  Add cilantro cover with the lid and cook for 2 min, stir occasionally. Add ½ tsp garam masala and roasted peanuts. Mix well.

Transfer the poha upma into a serving dish.
