1. Rinse the Poha Nicely

Always wash poha under running water. After that, squeeze out the excess water using a strainer and let it dry.

2. Don't Soak It Too Long

Soak the poha for just a few minutes. Over-soaking makes it soggy, and you won't get the right texture.

3. Fluff the Poha

Fluff the poha with your hands before cooking. This helps separate the grains. You can also use a fork to do this.

4. Cook it on Low Flame

Always cook poha on low flame. High heat can make it dry and hard. Low flame keeps it moist and fluffy.
