How to make Egg Poha:
- To make egg poha, first soak the poha in water and then wash it slowly, so that the excess starch present in it is removed. After this, lightly crumble the poha with hands, so that there are no lumps in it and the poha is prepared well. After some time, add salt, sugar, lemon juice and turmeric powder to the soaked poha and mix gently. Now, cut onion and tomato into thick pieces and chop them in a chopper.
- Crack eggs into a bowl and add salt and freshly ground black pepper. Beat well. Now add ghee in a pan. When the ghee is hot, add mustard seeds and cumin seeds and let them crackle. Add chopped onions and cook, stirring well, until they turn light golden brown.
- When the onions turn light golden brown, add curry leaves and chopped green chillies. Stir well, then add chopped tomatoes and a little salt. Cook for about a minute. Add turmeric powder and garam masala and mix everything well. Now add beaten eggs and keep stirring continuously. Cook for just 1-2 minutes.
- Add prepared poha and mix everything gently. The eggs will continue cooking along with the poha. Sprinkle some water, cover with a lid and turn off the flame. Due to this, Poha does not dry out and remains puffy and soft. Leave it like this for 2-3 minutes. After that, add roasted peanuts and green coriander on top and mix well. Fluffy and delicious Egg Poha is ready.
