Recipe Notes

 

  • There are many variants of poha available in the market, choose thick variant so that it cooks and releases its flavor in milk.

  • If we use thin or medium flattened rice, they melt and become mushy.

  • For additional flavor, we can make use of coconut milk.

  • For good taste, try to use full cream milk. If this recipe is made as naivedyam, its recommended to make use of cow milk.

  • As poha absorbs milk and make this recipe thick, we need to off the flame while this recipe is diluted.

  • If this recipe is served on the next day, it’s a good idea to refrigerate and add milk to dilute
