Poha is a light, quick Indian breakfast made by sauteing flattened rice with mustard seeds, turmeric, and onion, then finishing it with peanuts and lemon juice. Serve it warm.
Briefly rinse the flattened rice in a strainer and let it sit for a few minutes until softened. Drain off excess water.
Caution: The mustard seeds may splatter. Heat the cooking oil and add the mustard seeds. Once they begin to pop, add the onion and green pepper and saute until tender.
Sprinkle with turmeric and salt, then add the drained flattened rice to the skillet. Stir gently over low heat until well combined with the spices and warmed through.
Sprinkle with the peanuts, drizzle with lemon juice, and serve warm.
Important: Rinse and briefly soak the flattened rice, then drain it; soaking it too long can make it mushy. Allergen: Contains peanuts. Caution: Mustard seeds may pop and splatter in the skillet, so cover it briefly.
