Indori poha (poha of Indore) is a flattened rice snack that is likely to have originated in the Indian metropolis of Indore. It contains steamed poha (flattened rice) and is usually served with a unique combination of jalebi (called poha-jalebi combined), sev, usal, sliced onions and fennel seeds.[1]
Unlike the other varieties of Poha found across India, Indori Poha is cooked in steam instead of being cooked directly with other ingredients. This provides Indori Poha its distinct taste, softness, and flavor. Vendors generally prefer peas instead of peanuts, in contrast to typical Indian poha dishes. Indori poha is generally served with jalebi.[2]
History
Indori poha gets its name from the city of Indore which is its place of origin. It is believed that it was created after India's independence (1947). The recipe of Indori poha differs from vendor to vendor, though generally, it comes with a blend of North and Central Indian spices, snacks and namkeen.[3]
Indori poha is mainly sold by vendors all around the city during the morning time, often alongside the city's other popular snacks "kachori-samosas". It is also available in nearby cities Ujjain, Dewas, Sagar, Dhar, Ratlam and Bhopal and is becoming a very popular dish in Maharashtra, Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar.[4]
