add poha, salt mix well adding half of the chopped coriander leaves,keeping rest for garnishing.

mix well, cover and let it cook for 2 minutes on very low flame

remove from the gas, add lime juice mix well, garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot.

NOTE- you can add peas, cauliflower, potatoes, carrot also, that's what I used to do adding as much vegetables or even more than poha.

This snack will give you carbs, protein, vitamins, fiber and minerals, iron from poha. It will be more nutritious if you can cook with red poha to get more iron.
