DIRECTIONS
FLATTEN RICE MIX VEG POHA
1. Use a strainer or collander to rinse the poha. Keep the poha in the strainer and rinse it in running water twice or thrice. make sure that you do not rinse it too much or else it breaks and gets mushy. While rinsing, the poha absorbs enough water and it becomes soft. The poha must become soft but remain intact, whole and separate.
2. Heat up 2 tbsp or oil in a pan and add 2 tbsp peanuts. Fry them and keep them aside. I have used peanuts without the husk/skin, you can use with skin too.
3. In the same pan add the sliced potatoes. Stir occasionally. When the potatoes are almost done add chopped onion. Saute for 1-2 minutes.
4. Now add chopped carrot and beans. If you are using peas then blanch it and then add with the vegetablesto fry.
5. Add salt and turmeric powder. Cook till the vegetables are not cooked through. Keep the vegetables separately.
6. Now in another pan add 1 tbsp oil. To this add mustard seeds and curry leaves. When they start crackling add chopped green chilli. Saute for few seconds.
7. Now add the soaked poha. Add salt and suger and mix very well. After few seconds add the fried vegetables and fried peanuts. Mix very well.
8. Remove From heat. Add lemon juice. Mix and cover it for 3-4 minutes.
9. Transfer it to a serving plate and garnish with grated coconut and chopped coriander.
10. Serve in breakfast with hot tea.
