About Kanda Poha

Kanda Poha Recipe

Kanda Poha is a light Maharashtrian breakfast of softened poha cooked with onion, turmeric, curry leaves, peanuts and lemon.

Why this recipe works

  • Rinse poha briefly; over-soaking makes it mushy.
  • A tiny bit of sugar balances the lemon and turmeric.
  • Coconut and coriander make the final bowl fresh.

Serving idea

Serve warm with lemon wedges, sev if desired and hot tea.
