Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Rinse the poha gently under cold running water in a colander for about 1-2 minutes until it softens slightly. Be careful not to make it mushy. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure the poha is just softened, not waterlogged, for the best texture.
2
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan or kadai over medium heat.
Aproximativ 1 min.
3
Add the peanuts to the hot oil and fry until they turn golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the peanuts with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Keep an eye on the peanuts as they can burn quickly.
4
In the same oil, add the mustard seeds and allow them to splutter.
Aproximativ 1 min.
5
Add the cumin seeds and curry leaves and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
6
Stir in the yellow onion and green chili. Cook until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Aproximativ 4 min.
7
Add the turmeric powder, salt, and sugar to the pan. Mix well and cook for another minute.
Aproximativ 1 min.
8
Gently add the rinsed poha to the pan. Mix everything carefully until the poha is evenly coated with the spices.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Use a light hand to avoid breaking the poha grains.
9
Cover the pan and cook on low heat for 2-3 minutes to allow the poha to steam and absorb the flavors.
Aproximativ 3 min.
10
Remove from heat. Stir in the fried peanuts and lemon juice.
11
Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving hot.
