Kanda Poha (Onion Poha or Rice flakes) is famous, quick and healthier option for Indian breakfast or snax. Kanda Poha is originally a Maharastrian dish and plays important role in fixing marriages. If a girl pleases a boy - who has come to see her - with Kanda poha, chances of them getting tide in a nuptial knot increases.
Khamang Kanda Pohe
1. Heat 50-50 % of both oil and ghee in a pan. Ideally two-two table spoon each. Ghee could dominate over oil. No problem.
2. Crackle mustard seeds.
3. Add finely chopped onion, chopped green chillies and curry leaves.
4. Heat till onion becomes pink and starts spreading a nice mixed aroma of onion, chilly, ghee, curry leaves and mustard seeds.
5. This is the time to add the soaked poha.
6. Add turmeric, salt, sugar.
7. Mix well, till all pohas become yellow.
8. Cover with lid, lower down the stove and let it steam for 10 minutes.
9. Open, garnish with grated coconut, coriander leaves and serve.
NOTE:
1. You may opt to garnish the poha with nylon sev.
2. You may opt to put in some peanuts as well. For this you need to fry the peanuts for two three minutes when you initially heat the oil. Then proceed with next steps.
3. To soak the poha, put them in a jar, preferable with net at the bottom for draining excess water and pour in water till all the pohas get wet properly. Else you can take any bowl, put in pohas, pour water, let it stand for twenty seconds and drain the water. Do it trice and keep aside.
4. You may opt to add boiled potatoes as well.
