Tomato Peas Poha
I have shared the onion poha recipe previously , here is the slightly different version of poha.
Ingredients :-
Poha / Flattened Rice 1 & 1/2 cup - (Serves 2-3 )
Onion 1 Chopped
Green chillies 1-2 ( As per taste).
Boiled or frozen green peas 1/2 Cup
Oil 2 Tbsp
Peanuts 1/2 Cup ( As per preference )
Turmeric Powder 1/2 Teaspoon
Salt 1 Teaspoon
Tomato 1 Chopped
Coriander 1/2 Cup
Lime juice 1 Tsp
Cumin Seeds 1 Tsp
Directions :-
1) The most important step is soaking of the poha
* If you are using THIN poha , you only should sprinkle some water to make all poha wet completely and then follow the cooking method.
* Whereas if you are using THICK poha, wash 3 times to remove any impurities "without mashing/Very softly " and then either drain as in the picture ...
Or scoop all the poha one scoop at a time and squeeze tight using both the palm and remove all the water and set aside.
2 ) Take a Wok/ Kadai , heat OIL , add peanuts and fry until golden brown and set aside .
3) In the same kadai/ pan , add Cumin Seeds - Let it crackle.
4) Then add Onion and green chillies, turmeric powder & salt , cook for 5 mins .
5) Then add the chopped tomatoes r and cook again until tomatoes are soft. - 5 -7 mins .
6) Add the green peas ( boiled or frozen ) and little coriander and cook for 2 mins more .
7) Add back Poha and the fried peanuts and cover & cook for 2 mins ( until it steams.)
* Do not over Mix ...
8) garnish with Coriander leaves ....
Serve garma garam ...
