Meena, it is good that you aren't Maharashtrian... otherwise, you'd probably be making your special onion-rice delicacy when rishtey would come for you!😆

That will be called "phodnicha bhaat" (I tell my daughter it's fried rice made in indian way) 😉😆

Poha is flattened rice.. you get it in Indian grocery store.. and the pic Mohit posted is "Batata-Poha" that's why there is potato in it 😛

Waise we also make 'Onion seasoned rice' which is different to 'Kanda poha'...and is called as 'Phodnee bhaat;'😆 [before meena asks, phodnee means tadka]

Poha is a food derived from rice.

Flattened rice (also called beaten rice) is a dehusked rice which is flattened into flat light dry flakes. These flakes of rice swell when added to liquid, whether hot or cold, as they absorb water, milk or any other liquids. The thicknesses of these flakes vary between almost translucently thin (the more expensive varieties) to nearly four times thicker than a normal rice grain.

Good lord! here i go again with my food gyaan😭

Somehow "Poha" holds a very important position in reality shows where RM is there... during BB2 there was a big fight over it.. thanks to Diana-mummy 😉 and then we had fun beating that topic here on the forum 😆😆
