Poha With Potatoes And Peas

1. 1

   Put the poha in a colander or seive and wash under running water for a minute. Set aside to drain.

2. 2

   Heat the oil in a pan. Once it is hot, add mustard seeds and dry red chillies.

3. 3

   After the mustard seeds have stopped spluttering, add a pinch of asafoetida and green chillies and saute for 10 seconds.

4. 4

   Then add the raw peanuts and saute till they turn slightly brown.

5. 5

   Next add curry leaves and onions and saute for a minute.

6. 6

   Follow with turmeric, potatoes, peas and salt. (I also add grated carrot and cauliflower sometimes).

7. 7

   Cover the pan and cook till the potatoes are done. You can add a little water if the mixture is too dry.

8. 8

   Once the potatoes are tender, add the moistened poha and mix thoroughly. The turmeric should stain the poha completely. Be gentle while mixing to not end up with a mush. Sprinkle a little water if it looks dry.

9. 9

   Once everything is mixed properly, turn off the heat and add lemon juice.

10. 10

    Granish with cilantro leaves and enjoy with ketchup!
