Nutritional Information
Poha is typically made by parboiling, flattening and drying rice, so it is primarily a source of carbohydrates and is naturally light and easy to cook. Adding peanuts, vegetables and a squeeze of lemon makes the dish more balanced. For exact values, please see the Nutrition Facts panel printed on the package.


Cooking Suggestions
• Rinse, drain and temper with mustard seeds, onions, green chilies, turmeric and peanuts for kanda poha
• Make Indori poha topped with sev, pomegranate and a sprinkle of jeeravan masala
• Fry the flakes for a crunchy Diwali chivda with curry leaves and dry fruits
• Prepare Kerala aval nanachathu with jaggery and grated coconut

Frequently Asked Questions
How long should thick poha be rinsed?
Rinse it in a colander under running water for just 30 to 60 seconds and let it drain for a few minutes. Soaking too long makes the flakes soggy.
Can thick poha be used for chivda?
Yes. Thick flakes are ideal for deep-fried chivda because they puff slightly and stay crisp. Thin poha is better for roasted versions.
What is the difference between thick and thin poha?
Thick poha is sturdier and suits cooked dishes like kanda poha, while thin poha softens almost instantly and is used for dry-roasted snacks.
