By now you would have noticed that I love everything about Poha. Some form of the soya is a must for me at least once a day as that is a good source of protein for vegetarians. When I was thinking about what to pack for my lunch tomorrow I was thinking why not mix my 2 favorites together. It tasted wonderful and it is very healthy too
Ingredients:
Poha / Beaten Rice / Aval – 2 Cups
Ginger – 1 inch (chopped finely)
Garlic – 6 pods (chopped finely)
Soya Chunks – 1/2 Cup
Onion – 2 (Finely Chopped)
Tomato – 1 and 1/2 (finely chopped)
Mixed Vegetables – 1 Cup (Capsicum, Cabbage, carrot) Finely chopped
Salt per taste
Bay leaves – 1
Cardamom -4
Cloves – 3-4
Oil – 1 tablespoon of oil
Fry in one teaspoon of oil and grind to smooth paste
Coriander leaves / cilantro- 1/2 bunch
Cashew nuts – 6-8
Green Chillies – 4-6
Method:
Wash the Poha and drain the water. Squeeze the excess water.Keep it aside
Leave the soya chunks in hot water for 15 and drain and squeeze the excess water. keep it aside
Heat the pan and add oil. When it is hot add Bay leaves, cloves, cardamom, and fry for 30 sec. Add ginger, garlic, and onion. Fry till the onion is slightly brown. Add soya chunks and mix it well. Let it cook for 3 mins. Add mixed vegetables and mix well. Let the vegetable cook with a little salt.
Add tomato, ground paste, and mix it well. Cook for another 3-4 mins. Add Poha and salt and mix it well. Cook for another 2-3 mins till Aval is fully cooked
Serve hot with favorite Raita. You can add your favorite nuts also
