  • Add Veggies

    Onions, potatoes, beans, carrots, capsicums, peas, etc. can add vitamins to your poha, and help balance out the carbohydrate content of the dish.
  • Make Soya Poha

    Crumble protein-rich soya and cook it with green peas, beans, onions, tomatoes, etc., before mixing it with poha. This unique version might just become your favourite.
  • Add Nuts and Seeds

    Add nuts and seeds to enrich your poha with healthy fats, protein, and nutrients. Peanuts are a common choice.
  • Prepare Poha snacks

    Poha can be used to make delicious snacks, ranging from chivda to cutlets. Choose to air-fry or pan-fry them, rather than deep-frying.
  • Try Dahi Poha

    Combine the goodness of regular poha with calcium-rich curds for an energising meal. Its refreshing nature also makes it perfect for hot and humid days.
  • Enrich With Sprouts

    Sprouts are low in calories but high in protein, fibre, minerals, and antioxidants. They won't affect the overall taste of the poha too much.
