Feel the bursts of spicy energy on your palate as you munch on this traditional favourite from the kitchens of Gujarat.

An ever-popular snack in the region, especially amongst Jains, the Papad Poha is a unique combination of roasted poha and crushed papad seasoned simply but effectively with a dash of salt and sugar.

It is very important to use thin poha for this recipe. Also ensure that the oil is hot because that’ll help the seasoning to stick on to the poha. Cool and store in an airtight container to munch on whenever you wish.

Try other jar snacks like Poha Chivda or Kolhapuri Bhadang Murmura.
