Poha Patties Recipe

Poha Patties Recipe – Poha patties or poha pakoda is a quick and easy fried snack dish which can be served in morning breakfast as well as in the evening snacks. Hungry school returning kids love these delicious snack. Also it can be served as sides in a lunch menu or tiffin.

Poha is called by different names in different languages and parts of India. For example they call it Aval (அவல்) in Tamil and Malayalam, poha or pauwa in Hindi, pauaa/paunva (પૌંઆ) in Gujarati, pohe in Marathi. The flattened rice or poha is very common in northern India especially in state of Maharastra and Gujarat where the breakfast dish of Aloo poha (potato poha) or Kanda poha (Onion poha) is prepared. Both these versions have unique taste and goes really well with a cup of tea. I have used the same ingredient and tried to give it a twist. This is a good way to break the routine and enjoy Poha in a different form.

A while ago I had made a dish similar to poha patties called Rice & Sweet corn bites. The idea is same just the ingredients differ and so does the taste. Both dishes are extremely tasty and a must try if you not have already.
