Cooking Tips

• Make sure to squeeze out any excess water from the soaked poha before adding it to the mixture.
• You can add finely chopped vegetables like carrots or peas to the mixture for added flavor and nutrition.
• Adjust the spice levels according to your preference by adding more or less chili powder and green chilies.

Storage and Serving

• Poha fingers are best served hot and crispy.
• If you have any leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
• To reheat, place the poha fingers in a preheated oven or air fryer for a few minutes until they become crispy again.
