About Pohe

Pohe, also known as poha, is a popular Indian dish made from flattened rice. Originating from Maharashtra but enjoyed across the country, it is typically cooked with a mix of spices, turmeric, onions, and mustard seeds, and often garnished with fresh coriander, grated coconut, or lemon juice. This versatile dish can include peanuts, potatoes, or vegetables, making it a wholesome breakfast or snack option. Pohe is rich in carbohydrates, providing quick energy, and contains dietary fiber depending on added ingredients like vegetables. It is relatively low in fat when cooked with minimal oil, making it a light yet satisfying choice. However, the nutritional profile can vary based on preparation, with excess oil or sugar potentially reducing its health value. Simple and flavorful, Pohe is ideal for a balanced meal when combined with protein-rich sides such as yogurt or legumes.
