Poha(Aval) Upma - A quick evening snack!

This is one of the easiest yet filling snack which can be done in a jiffy!

Poha(Aval) Upma
Ingredients :
Poha/Aval (thick or thin) - 1cup
Onion - 1
Curry leaves - 3 to 4
Finely chopped Green chillies - 1
Mustard seeds - 2 tsp
Turmeric powder - 2 tsp
Grated Coconut - 1 tbsp

Method:
1. Soak poha in water for 5mins (I used thin if its thick it will take some more time). Then sqeeze water and keep the poha aside for 5mins.

2. In a kadai : Drizzle oil, add mustard seeds then add onions, curry leaves, green chillies and turmeric powder.

3. Saute till onions are fried well. Add grated coconut which is purely optional, but it adds to the taste.

4. Add the poha to the above and mix well. Add salt to taste.

5. Poha upma is ready to be served!
