To prepare kanda poha, put the beaten rice flakes in a stainer and wash them well, which will help to soften the poha, drain them and keep aside. To prepare the tempering, take oil in a deep non stick pan, add peanuts and roast them. Peanuts give a unique and nutty flavor to the kanda poha. Further, add cumin seeds and mustard seeds, once they crackle add curry leaves and green chillies. You can adjust the quantity of green chilies according to your preference of spice. Usually maharashtrians make their poha quite spicy. Further add onions, turmeric, salt and mix well. Turmeric is the only spice used as the beautiful color is derived by turmeric.
