About Namkeen poha
Namkeen Poha is a popular Indian breakfast dish originating from the western and central regions of India. Made from flattened rice, it is typically sautéed with turmeric, mustard seeds, curry leaves, green chilies, and onions, creating a savory and mildly spiced flavor. Peanuts, fresh coriander, and a squeeze of lemon juice are often added for texture and zest. Poha is a gluten-free dish rich in carbohydrates, making it a quick energy source. It contains essential nutrients like iron, especially when fortified, and can be a good option for a light meal. The inclusion of vegetables enhances its fiber content, supporting digestive health. However, its nutritional value depends on portion size and preparation, as excessive use of oil or fried accompaniments may add undesirable fats. Versatile and easily customizable, Namkeen Poha is a wholesome and flavorful choice enjoyed across Indian households.
