About Peas Peanut Poha (Mp Style Breakfast)

Born and brought up in Madhya Pradesh (MP) Poha has been my staple food since childhood. Poha use to be our breakfast daily.

Even you find it on the streets, small tea stalls & all around the town in the morning. In MP you start your day with Poha, Samosa, Jalebi, Daal Kachori & Chai. I love to cook poha & now since I have moved out of my Town, cooking Poha is the remembrance of my hometown & my childhood...

Friends and family say I cook the best Poha in this world..so now its your turn to share your experience with me on my Poha recipe in typical MP style...Its healthy & superb for Breakfast.

Recipe Notes

Soaking of Poha depends on the quality/brand of Poha you are using. I dont soak it in water as I use Rajdhani poha which just requires washing.
You can use potato as well in this recipe
Remember poha taste best with lemon & bhujiya so dont forget to include that
If you want to avoid the sugar, you can surely do
