Pohe- savory flattened rice snack

Potato Pohe with green peas.
I love pohe. This simple snack is associated with so many delightful childhood memories. I remember waking up to the smell of freshly made pohe. Pohe can be made as an evening snack, something that you enjoy with a cup of hot tea.
the thing to remember is that pohe needs a lot of onion, salt and oil.
Recipe:
1 bowl "thin" pohe.
1 large onion, diced
1 large potato cut into bite sized wedges
1/2 cup green peas
2 sprigs curry leaves
4 tsp oil + some reserve
4 green chillies, cut into pieces
2 tsp clarified butter
1/2 tsp tumeric powder
salt, sugar to taste
1/4 tsp asafoetida
1/2 tsp mustard deeds
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
chopped cilantro and or fresh coconut for garnishing
Procedure:
Heat a heavy bottom pan and warm up oil in it. Add hing and mustard seeds, when they start to sputter add cumin seeds, curry leaves and chillies. Then add onion and tumeric on it. Cover and let the onion cook till translucent. Then add potatoes and peas and some water. Cover till the potatoes are cooked and some water dries up. Then add salt and mix well the wet pohe in this. Cover and let it steam for some time. If the pohe flakes look dry, then add some of the reserve oil to it. Then mix well the sugar and clarified butter. Taste it and adjust salt-sugar accordingly. Garnish with cilantro, grated coconut and serve hot.
Enjoy
Dipti!
Pohe taste best when they are served hot.
