How to Make Tomato Poha
- Rinse the poha under running water until clean. Drain well.
- Gently mix 1/4 cup of water with the poha and let it sit for 15 minutes, then drain completely. Fluff with a fork to break up any clumps.
- In a bowl, combine the drained poha with salt, lime juice, turmeric powder, and red chili powder. Mix well.
- Heat oil in a broad, heavy-bottomed pan or saucepan over medium heat.
- Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Allow them to splutter.
- Add the chopped onions, green chilies, and curry leaves. Sauté until the onions turn golden brown (about 5-7 minutes).
- Add the diced potatoes and tomatoes. Stir well and cook for another 3-5 minutes.
- Add the roasted peanuts and the seasoned poha to the pan. Mix everything thoroughly.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and well combined.
- Remove from heat.
- Transfer the Tomato Poha to a serving dish.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately. Enjoy!
