Cooking Instructions

Tips & Secrets

  • Steam-cooking the poha rather than sautéing is mandatory for achieving the most authentic soft texture.
  • Ensuring the fennel seeds are used in tempering provides the absolute secret to achieving superior aroma.
  • The addition of a little bit of milk while soaking provide the essential extra-soft lift.
  • Always use 'Indori Jeeravan' masala to ensure the signature regional taste is achieved.
