Soya Poha

As you read in my post for Soya Pulao and Kofta, I got myself some soya chunks. My son loved it so much when I used it in the soy pulao preparation. I decided to throw some in when i made poha. A nice addition to my poha.

I usually make all my upma varieties with a lot of vegetables. Sometimes, many of my tiffin items have more vegetables that the main ingredient itself.



Ingredients

Poha/Aval 2 cups
Soya chunks 1 cup
Mixed Vegetables 2 cups
Onion 1 big
Green Chilli 1
Ginger 1 inch
Curry Leaves Few
Mustard 1/2 tsp
Channa Dal 1 tsp
Split Urad Dal 1 tsp
Peanuts 1 tbsp
Cumin 1 tsp
Turmeric 1 tsp
Hing a little
Chilli Powder 1/2 tsp
Lime Juice 2 tbsp



Method of Preparation

1. Heat oil in a pan and add the mustard.

2. When it sputters, add the Channa dal, Urad dal and Peanuts.

3. When it starts to brown, add the cumin, turmeric, hing, green chilli, ginger and curry leaves.

4. Add the onions and saute till it starts to brown.

5. In the meanwhile, get the poha ready. Mine just requires a little washing under the tap in a sieve.

6. Boil some water and add the soy chunks for 5 minutes. Switch off and drain. Keep ready.

7. Once the onion is ready, add the vegetables and soy chunks.

8. Add some salt and chilli powder. Mix well.

9. Finally add the poha. Mix and switch off.

10. Add the lime juice at the end.
