Indori Poha - Madhya Pradesh



In our Indian food Odyssey we are in Madhya Pradesh today,a Central province state situated in Central India.
This state has a nick name'Heart of India'due to its geographical location in India and its the second largest state in the country by area.
Both vegetarian and non-vegetarian recipes are popular and street foods are very common.
Poha with jalebi is a breakfast dish  and its a popular street food combo too.
The poha is a healthy dish made along with veggies and can be topped with sev, fresh pomegranate seeds,onion and peanuts.
I adapted the recipe from here and here,as I don't have pomegranate I used the thin sev and peanuts for the topping and we had it as an evening snack. Lets.Lets move on to the recipe..................................
