Notes
- Poha - Use thick or medium thick poha which is best for this recipe.
- Rinsing poha - Rinse it at least 2-3 times, by then it will become soft also so no need to soak further.
- Adding jaggery - Make sure to add jaggery that is free from dirt as we are adding it directly.
- Variations - You can add ghee fried cashews and raisins too.
- Adding coconut - Do not reduce coconut as that is one of the main ingredients that gives taste to this sweet.
