Sooji | Rava kichadi

Puli Aval | Poha with tamarind

Poha or Aval is is very easy to cook and can be done in any time. Today I felt like to have tamarind rice. But I wanted to try something different. Then I remembered my mom’s special poha with tamarind. This tangy aval is my favorite. But she rarely prepares poha when I was small. I was not much interested to eat poha. When I was in PG, poha was the only dish they prepare good. That is how started showing interest in cooking and eating poha.

Let’s see how to make this poha with tamarind.

Sivappu Aval Upma | Red Flattened Rice

    Red poha or red rice flakes is nothing but flattened rice made from red rice.  Red poha nutrition value is high compared to white rice flakes. I did not know about this till the time one of my friends Jayanthi told me. For health concern, now I started buying Red rice flakes.

Aval Upma | Avalaki Bath | Poha Upma
