How to Use Thick Poha

Rinse the poha gently under cold water for 30–60 seconds until just softened — do not soak. Drain well and set aside. In a pan, heat oil and temper with mustard seeds, curry leaves, green chilli, and onion. Add the drained poha, season with turmeric, salt, and lemon juice, and toss gently over a low heat for 2–3 minutes. Garnish with fresh coriander, grated coconut, and sev to serve.
