Corn Poha (Makke ka poha)

Recently I saw makke ka poha on Grofers while buying grocery. Nice bright yellow - orange colour poha was so attractive. Of course I purchased it because of its awesome looks and the reason why I am posting it here is definitely because of its yummy flavour. So basically this is beauty with taste ;)


Ingredients:

Makke ka poha - 1 cup
Potato - 1
Tomato - 2
Green chillies - 3
French beans - 1/2 cup
Ginger - 1 1/2 inch
Onion - 1
Peanut - 10-12
Curry leaves - 7-8
Coriander chopped - 1 tbsp
Turmeric - 1/2 tsp
salt to taste

Method: 

  • Wash makke ka poha in a strainer. Soak it in little water for 2-3 mins.
  • Heat oil in a pan. Add potato and little salt.
  • Cover it and let it cook for about 3-4 mins on low flame.
  • Once it is done you can keep it aside.
  • In the same oil add green chillies and ginger.
