Poha is one of the yummiest Indian dishes you can ever make, not to mention healthy, fast, easy. Can be served as snack or breakfast. 
As with all Garden Recipes, your comfort is top most priority so be happy to know this is again a one-pot dish - yes!! very little clean-up. You will be in the kitchen maximum 20 mins. And done. Yup. 

Here are the reasons why I love this recipe and you will too -

1. It cooks in no time - max 20 mins from start to finish. 

2. It is great for lunch box - yours and kids.

3. Great for entertaining - fast and easy and for anytime of day - snack/lunch/dinner/breakfast.

4. Super healthy - no wheat, lots of red onions, mustard seeds, curry leaves and turmeric.

5. One-pot!! Love it!!

6. Easy to make - even new cooks can make it - just follow the directions.


OK, so let's get started with another robust, health filling recipe.

Ingredients - 

1. Poha - 2 cups - rinsed in water.
2. Curry leaves - handful
3. Organic medium or large red onion - 1
4. Organic medium tomatoes - 2
5. Organic cilantro - 1 small bunch
6. Peanuts - handful


Spices -

1. Mustard seeds - 1 Tablespoon
2. Turmeric - 1 Tablespoon
3. Cayenne - per taste - try 1/3 teaspoon first, then add more.
4. Green chilies -1 or 2 
5. Dry red chilies - 1 or 2


Simple steps -

1. Rinse poha in sieve/bowl for 1 minute. Drain all water very well and keep aside.

2. Heat organic coconut oil in steel pan. Throw in mustard seeds, red chili and green chopped chili - all on medium heat. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until you hear spluttering of mustard seeds.

2. Add onions, tomatoes, curry leaves, peanuts, turmeric, salt, cayenne and sauté - until all are cooked and soft.

3. Add poha to the mix.

4. Mix all for 3-5 minutes and add organic cilantro as much. I added 1 whole bunch for health and taste as I love it.

5. Serve and enjoy the tasty meal.

I made this with pistachios since I’m avoiding peanuts right now. Also added some cut-up zucchini I found in the fridge. Delicious!!
