Step 1
Rinse poha in a fine-mesh strainer under cool water until softened, about 30 seconds. Drain well.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium. Add mustard seeds and cook until they pop, ~30 seconds.
Step 3
Add diced potatoes and onion. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until potatoes soften, 6–7 minutes.
Step 4
Sprinkle turmeric and salt over potatoes. Stir and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5
Add rinsed poha to the skillet. Toss gently to combine, cooking until heated through, 2 minutes.
Step 6
Remove from heat. Drizzle lime juice over the mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Step 7
Divide between bowls. Top with crushed peanuts and cilantro. Serve immediately.
