Notes

• You can use thick or thin poha but make sure to soak accordingly, thin poha needs less time for soaking but thick needs a bit more time.
• Coating with corn flour mixture the coating with breadcrumbs should be done only just before frying, so that it doesn't become soggy and stays crisp.
• You can add more oil and deep fry it, I just shallow fried.
