Note:-

1.if the poha is washed much before we start coking poha..they will become soft n mashed..

2.Adjust the ingredients according the amount of poha u r cooking

3.some times this poha upma will become hard later..so better to eat this when it is hot r warm.

4.Add little lemon juice  n taste to check whether it is sufficient…add more if required..instead of adding all the juice at a time..

5.Tasty if we have it with a cup of curd.
