Poha Recipe: If one has travelled across parts of Central India there is a trend to eat poha for breakfast. Poha is one of the ultimate choices in Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra for breakfast. This, however, does not limit Poha's popularity in India. Poha tastes good when made right but people complain that their poha turns out dry.
That is why many prefer to eat readymade poha from the market instead of making poha at home. Today we will tell you how to make soft and perfectly nutritious poha at home in a simple way.
