Cooking Steps
Step 1: To begin making the Aloo Poha Recipe-Batata Poha Recipe, we will first rinse the poha or flattened rice under cold water and drain any excess water
Step 2: Using a large strainer for washing helps ease the rinsing process
Step 3: Transfer the rinsed rice to a large bowl; stir in the turmeric, salt, sugar, asafoetida and keep aside
Step 4: Heat oil in a pan on medium heat; add the mustard seeds, cumin seeds and allow them to crackle
Step 5: Once the seeds have crackle stir in the onions, curry leaves, ginger, green chillies and sauté until the onions are tender and become translucent
Step 6: Now stir in the potatoes and sauté for a couple of minutes till potatoes are cooked
Step 7: Once done gradually stir in the flattened rice mixture into the onion and potato mixture
Step 8: Sprinkle about 3 tablespoons of water and gently stir to combine all the ingredients
Step 9: Turn the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid and let it simmer for 4-5 minutes
Step 10: You will notice the flattened rice has fluffed up a little
Step 11: Once the poha is done turn off heat and stir in the freshly squeezed lemon juice, steamed peas, roasted peanuts and chopped coriander leaves
Step 12: Let the aloo poha sit covered for another minute
