Poha is a popular Maharashtrian breakfast recipe. My mom used to make poha often for breakfast or for evening tea. Either it used to be made with onions only or with onions and potato.
Poha is the Maharashtrian word for flattened or beaten rice. In Marathi it often said Kande Pohe cha beth - it is understood that a boy coming to see a girl at her house.
This is an easy and quick breakfast to prepare.
