2 cups flattened rice (poha)
available at any Indian grocery store.
2 cups water
1 potato, chopped small
2 tablespoons ghee
1 onion, chopped fine
1/4 cup groundnuts (raw peanuts)
1/2 teaspoon turmeric (just enough to colour the rice)
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
Lemon juice, to taste
Salt and pepper
Directions:
Soak the flattened rice (poha) in water and set aside.
In a large round bottomed frying pan, heat the ghee till very hot. Add mustard seeds, onion, potato and groundnuts. When the mustard seeds are tender, cover with water and cook till potato and groundnuts are tender.
Drain off any excess water from the soaked rice. Add the turmeric to the rice until it's a nice golden yellow. Add the rice to the frying pan and mix with the potato onion mixture until hot. Add salt, pepper and lemon juice to your taste.
