Poha is a popular Indian breakfast food that is light, easy to make, and nutritious. It is rich in iron, fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins. Poha can be prepared in many ways across India by adding ingredients like chivda, spices, onions, and peanuts. While basic poha is filling and good for the stomach, adding lemon juice aids in iron absorption or peanuts and legumes make it more protein-rich and satisfying.
